If you have pictures that can be emailed to me, that would be great. Also looking for unusual and funny pictures regarding meteorites like the picture I missed last week of the old woman meteorite landing on a man! Thanks in advance...

I bought it because of it's Macro abilities. The Coolpix 950, 990, and 995 also have good Macro abilities but are a little less on the megapixel scale. Also, they are much cheaper! Here is a good website on camera reviews with user forums: http://www.dpreview.com/ <http://www.dpreview.com/> I am still practicing as I have only had the camera a few days. The most difficult thing that I have found is getting enough light on the subject as you can put the lens as close as .8 inch from the subject which tends to allow the camera to throw shadows. If anyone knows of a good lighting retail source for photography please let me know. Here are two photos that I just took. The first is my .5 gram slice of Calcalong Creek: http://208.55.105.193/calcalongcreek.JPG <http://208.55.105.193/calcalongcreek.JPG> This photo is a close-up of NWA 482: http://208.55.105.193/nwa482closeup.JPG <http://208.55.105.193/nwa482closeup.JPG> So far this is a great little Camera/Computer.
