The Chosen Ones

Arrrgh I'm depressed!

I got sick of reading too much reviews, but I managed anyway. Now I have narrowed them down to two groups, the most likely group, and the least likely group.

I chose three likely candidates, based on having more preferred criterias than the rest.

Since I already have a Nikon, and they didn't put enough zoom and aesthetical factor in their 5-megapixel range, I chose to put the Nikon 5900 in the Least Likely group. Good looking 5-megapixel Nikons are expensive, too.

Although the Kodak has the biggest temptation ever, I deem the Panasonic and Canon to be the likely final choice. Reviews has put both as having the best overall picture quality, as well as ease of use, and all sorts of obvious factors.

It seems agonizing sometimes, when you know what you really wanted.
