I was going to buy this, but the noise and NR killed it for me, as i like to take pictures in the dark with no tripod.

I bought one two weeks ago from PC World with a free bag for £269 after price match and mine says Carl Zeiss, as does my friends who bought one last week.

I've been thinking about buying one of these for a while now. Has anyone seen the version with a 75-300 mm lens? Is it worth it?

Does anyone know if you're able to use the LCD to "take" the photo on this... or is it old-style viewfinder only?

The A200 is viewfinder only
