Aha, now you're talking!

Anyone on top of DC upcoming technology? I'd like a better DC but would
rather wait until someone comes up with a lense that has a manual exposure
override. This controls the depth of field which is extremely important to
me, and I never liked auto-anything on a camera anyhow even with the film
cameras. Are there manual-overrides coming online for DC anytime in the near
future? Anyone know?

PS: For those of us not camerophiles, could one of you gentlemen explain and
discuss 'artifacts' ? Thanks!

TIFF format, however I have never had noticeable artifacts, so I do
not use it.

A couple of features which are missing (or inadequate) from the Casio
and many other digicams, and which I feel are essential for any kind
of close-up photography, are manual overrides for focus and exposure.
