Sam isn't kidding about the S1's use in museums. Check out this (incredibly, awesomely, geeky) New Yorker story about trying to digitize one of the most famous tapestries in the world: [www.newyorker.com]

@badbob001: The Evo's USB jack is there and it's actually quite comfortable for me in landscape. My right ring and middle fingers cradle the end of the cord when attached. I occasionally have to watch out for putting pressure on the jack while inserted, but it's comfortable enough for an hour or so.

@HiAperture: m4/3 represents a 2x crop factor compared to 35mm film. So an EF 50mm lens on this rumored body would give the field of view of a 100mm lens.

A super telephoto zoom with max apertures of f/4.8 and f/6.7?

@Lemonade: You should move to Texas: Saint Arnold's, Live Oak, Real Ale...

@ZenInsight: You're very welcome. I shoot Pentax equipment but that Canon combo should serve you very well.

@ZenInsight: It's possible, just not very likely because the trade-offs are complicated and expensive.

@ZenInsight: The only way to cram a 10x-12x zoom in a body that small is to shrink the sensor or seriously downgrade the lens with smaller maximum apertures. Both would allow for smaller lenses but both would make low light performance worse.

@Kardster: What, you don't think a Bump or two can handle it? ;)

I'd love to see that much storage space in my future cell phone.

If this is a lens system, what is the focal length and maximum aperture? Seems kinda crucial.

@CaffineFreakUs: What if you consistently used the same lighting for each shot and "scanned" in RAW? That way you can experiment with the white balance in-camera to get the shots in the ballpark and then make minor adjustments as needed in post.

@Future Retro: APS sensors also have a noise advantage in that they are able to shoot in lower light without image-degrading specks of random color and grain.

@kittydeathgrip.com: Vignette is a great camera app. Tons of customization to get the shot you want and it can use the full resolution of the camera.

@norazi: I know, I see those warnings right after I click to buy or install. :)

@WestwoodDenizen: Certainly. I read through that page before agreeing to the download. However, it wouldn't hurt to highlight or set apart those permissions that could do serious harm.

Maybe Google could, when the user clicks to buy/install the app, highlight those permission requests that pose the most danger?

@TheNimboo: On my Evo using Sense, you can set the volume buttons to Snooze or Dismiss. No need for a touchscreen for that feature here.

@brijazz: I've burned through several CD alarm clock radios. I won't buy one unless the face shows large numbers and there's a 3.5mm jack for output. Why?
