It is tricky to get the design of a zoom compact enough, but as I wrote quite some time ago, it is not only possible, but there are at least three ways I know of to get there. The one that should be obvious to everyone right now is to use the Kodak/Leica offset microlens bit, as this allows you to use designs that are aggressive in the rear portion of the optics. But there's complexity in all three ways I know to do it. I suspect everyone is rushing to market at the moment, panicked that someone else will grab significant market share. -- Thom Hogan author, Complete Guides to Nikon bodies (21 and counting) www.bythom.com
