Tom, Thanx for your positive feelings ...

Tom,

Thanx for your positive feelings and impressions of your A100. I always appreciate someone who is willing to discuss their own personal impressions and their own personal feelings, (e.g. "... appealing", "my impression...", "A100 feels...", "... would miss the ..." "to me...").

Regarding Carl's review, his review is about as balanced between subjective / objective as any other hands-on review for any other camera or any other brand. All hands-on reviewers have to describe their perceptions, otherwise they would have nothing to say: "It looks ..." , "it sounds ..." , "it feels ..."

As you know, one way or another, someone has to use one of their own senses for a hands-on review. To accurately describe those sensory perceptions, they would appropriately use the words like "feels", "looks", etc. If I ever read a hands-on review where someone said something like, "it is more rugged" (v. "it feels more rugged" ), then I would want to know the measurements they used to make that determination. (Unless, it is obvious they are talking about their perceptions). I'm sure you feel the same.

So, like me, you probably appreciate the extra amount of accuracy that Carl has in his review.
