With our cameras sometimes it is more of a pain to use cause if something is kind of close but we have the big lens on then we are screwed. Don't have time to tell them to wait, change lenses, settings, and then resume what they were doing to shoot them. That is why I kind of like the idea of having a point and shoot, that way it is more versitle and is ready when you need it. Who knows, you might find you use it a lot since you work downtown.
