As my Computer suffered a hard drive failure I have lost all of my pics minus a few :(,
So out of the non lost ones here is probably my favourite three:dev2:
Not a good shot but summed up (apart from the weather) what 08 was about in my eyes
In an attempt to be more helpful and less of an equipment “snob” than many of my fellow enthusiasts may I recommend the panasonic FZ28……Leica lens speaks for itself and 27 – 486 zoom (35mm equivalent) takes some beating and then there’s the 4x digital zoom on top of that.In terms of range it will better an SLR unless with expensive long zoom and if you’ve got very steady hands or can steady against a fencepost or suchlike it will get pics at a range an SLR can’t match.
You will have to contend with a fiddly zoom lever,however.
Here’s an example about a mile from camera at Milan MXP lat September……OK it’s not perfection but what so called “proper” camera can do this? It’s at least 1500mm equivalent in SLR terms
Approx £230 and by the way I have full SLR kit as well so I’m not speaking from prejudice.

If that remark was aimed at me I don’t appreciate being called an ‘equipment snob’ also how you can class that pic as a ‘quality pic’ like the OP asked is beyond me.
