The surf was HORRIBLE so this was about all I could get in the twenty minutes I shot (had to get in the water). I just cant believe how well the zoom works and the autofocus is impeccable! This camera just blows me away. The other pics are just so perfectly clear, the features easy to use... I cant explain how stoked I am. Thanks to all you who suggested this camera to me. Here are a few more pics (the bottom one is me looking stupid )...
