I've just ordered one from Amazon UK, should be here they say in a week or two, because we're VAT free here in the Channel Islands I got it for £264.77, not bad eh :D

Anyhoo I was just wondering if anybody here had used one yet and if so have they liked it?

Cheers.

I have the P-2000 and I really like it. You can say, I can't leave home without it. When I shoot a large wedding or event, I have it with me in case I have to download a CF card and I don't have my laptop. It takes a few minutes to download so have a few cards to use while it downloads, but I think on one charge the battery lasted for 4 - 5 cards, maybe more. I bought mine from a friend here in the forum and she had an extra battery. That has been very useful. I recommend you get an extra battery for back-up if you are on the road.

But as for the quality of the picture on the LCD, WOW! Couldn't believe the detail. I may need it less now that I have the 5D and the LCD is large and the viewfinder is huge, but the P-2000 is how I show clients my work, as well.

Vat-free :evil:

Hmmmm. When will you be 'selling it on' I really like the sound of the upgrades from the 2000 - Dante seems to like it!
