mbseeker said: the 3.8x optical kills this camera. i will go with the Sony hx20v. i think that might be an much rounder option specially for concerts.Umm.. I have the HX1.. which is a superzoom camera too.. but you can compare those two cameras. F2.8 in my camera is nothing compared to a F1.4 lens this camera has.

True this is not a mega-zoom, but the selling point of this camera is the high quality and fast lens not typically found on P & S cameras. Also, this lens has the equalivent of a 24mm perspective which would make it fantastic for landscapes and vistas.
