Re: Digital Camera Shoot-Out

[Don Roberts <droberts@xxxxxxxx>]

Even though I have a Minolta Dimage A2 in my arsenal, and like it, I 
find the results of this competition strange.  It looks like a stacked 
deck may have been used here.  I can't find details or criteria.  
Perhaps Karl can shed more light on this.  Or throw more fuel on the 
brand wars fire.
