Title: Low EyeQ for seasoned photographers
Product review: For anyone accustomed to the instant response of shutter releases on manual-focus film cameras, the one-second delay between "press" and "click" on many auto-focus digital cameras is bad enough. Imagine if, after pressing the shutter release, your viewfinder went dark (during which you're instructed to hold the camera very still), three seconds passed before the flash went off, and another five passed before a grainy rendering of your attempted photo appeared in the viewfinder in low-res LCD glory for _another_ five seconds before you finally got a chance to take another picture. Well, this, along with a fast-draining, non-rechargable lithium battery, is exactly what you get with the Concord EyeQ.Yes, it's small, light, inexpensive, and a marvel of engineering. It's the cheapest digital SLR by several hundred dollars. And it drove me crazy in less than fifteen minutes of use. I'm sending it back.
