Mike, j/k.

Craig, that thing is HUGE! My (unprofessional) opinion is that - if you REALLY need RAW AND you are willing to carry around something that big, you should just bite the bullet and step up monetarily to an entry-level DSLR like a Canon Rebel or Nikon D40 or something.

If you want a new $300 digital camera, I'd sacrifice the big lens and the RAW and get a compact like another Canon or a Casio.

That Fuji does look like a lot of camera for the money, though.

I'm helping a lot, huh? Not.
