thanks -

the Nikon point and shoots are quite nice- I got one of the newer ones as a gift for my wife a couple years ago, takes very nice photos (but then again - i've been a Nikon guy since the 60's - I still carry an F2 in the truck)

the digital camera market has stratified over the last little while - point and shoots or as I call them PHS (push here stupid ) have been especially affected

the entry level / lower cost models have been over whelmed by cell phones

and the good ones are not much less expensive than the entry level mirrorless cameras so demand is declining for them
