Apart from being able to dive deeper and few more "kids modes", this looks like same as the D20. Same fps, same ISO, same lens, same HD video, same 12mp sensor, same DIGIC 4 processor.

Shame. I was hoping for something like the Olypus TG-2 or Panasonic DMC-FT5, e.g. more fps, higher ISO and a faster lens

About as much of an advancement as the "White EOS" of last year

The 'HS' designation usually means the camera has the newer BSI-CMOS sensor, which has much less noise than the older CMOS sensor in the D20.

Hi Phil,

thanks. If the IQ is improved, it might be worth a look. I'll wait for some reviews to surface.

chers,

Personally I'd recommend sticking with the D20 over the D30.
The noise is shocking on this camera!
It feels as tho they have taken a step back with this model
