Default ***Spring Fling Bar***

You can find the list of rules here: http://forums.corvetteforum.com/forumdisplay.php?f=109.

In addition, there are a few other specific rules that bar threads have such as:

- no signature posts when replying in a bar thread, it clutters up the bar thread and makes it less like a chat room

- Only one bar is allowed in the Northeast section at a time.

- After 1000 replies, it gets locked and a new one starts by a different person. You can call it whatever you like as long as you specify its a bar thread.

Additional rule:
Leave your keys with the bartender....

Something along those lines, right? I'll get back to you with an answer later on. As long as it's below 400 beans, right?

Josh - I like Image Stabilization because it holds the camera still enough to take most inside pictures without a flash. It's not a must by any means, and the fact that the lens goes down to 2.8 (aperature) helps offset that by a bit.

The other thing I noticed is that it uses XD memory. XD memory is more expensive and harder to get - which is sometimes a problem when you're on vacation and you either lost, damaged, or filled the card(s) you brought with you. YOu can find SD and CF all over (like Best Buy, etc) because they are used by so many camera manufacturers, but XD cards are usually only available from camera dealers that carry cameras that require them.

On the plus side, the lens and optical zoon rate is fantastic. With a range like that, there's no need for the interchangable lenses of a DSLR.
