    Panasonic & Canon are quite prominant according to these "experts" (which I am not). What can I say?

    I must be misreading that link. I didn't see anything where Panasonic and Canon are "dominant" or "prominent". And those picks are only the ones he reviewed. Take that with a BIG grain of salt.

    I'd choose Panasonic over Canon everyday.

    And, I forgot to mention this: You don't need 16mp. You aren't going to blow up anything to eight feet by ten feet. Your eye probably cannot discern the difference between 10mp and 16mp. Therefore, you can get downright steals now on older cameras that are still NOS. 2011 models are fine, as are 2010 models and they are less than 1/2 of the 2012 models. The warranty doesn't start until date of purchase.

    Happy Hunting!

    The site has top picks in each price range. There are 20 receommended cameras in total. Of those 60% are either Panasonic or Canon. Is that dominant? The other 40% is split betweem Nikon, Olympus, Sony & Pentax.

    I'm outa here!!!

    His disclaimer says it all. It's only cameras he's reviewed. Me thinks he gets more demo's to review from Canon and Panasonic than he does Nikon and the others....Nikon is the world's leader in digital camera sales, as far as I can tell...

    In 2005, what manufacturer led in digital camera sales???



    Kodak.

    My how times change.....

    Kodak hasn't made a decent camera while I have been alive.. I'm in my thirties.. just cause they sell from name recognition.. Kodak may be the worst brand out there.. nothing wrong with nikon, but hard to believe they are on top in the usa.. maybe globally

    Ya your probably right. Nikon only sent 3 cameras, all of which made the best list.
