Abraham Lincoln said...: it is very much like or similar to the giant, outdoor, buddha at Kamakura, Japan. They look like the same model was used.; January 26, 2009 at 12:29 AM

On the cameras, I actually did it the other way around. I had the Lumix first and then bought the little canon, primarily to be able to stick in my pocket on walks or throe in my bag on business trips. While I am really happy with the Lumix, it is a little too bulky to have with me all the time.
