yes very good resolution, can't wait for my DCR250 to arrive, the 202 is not really practical with any of my lenses.

Thanks Toby. I think the DCR250 is more versatile.

This is an excellent capture Brian. Really impressive.

I missed a DCR250 for around £23.00 on Ebay tonight. Well, I forgot about it. :(

Still, there'll be plenty more, as long as I'm not bidding against one of you lot. :p

Lovely shot :)- suspect the hairs on the tongue are probably for tasting.
