Does your point-and-shoot drive you crazy?

These grouchy dogs are thinking, "are you going to take a picture or not?"
I pressed the button about twenty seconds earlier, or so it seems.

Becky's ear got clipped, but I'm lucky I got as much of her as I did. You see, my
little point-and-shoot doesn't have a view finder, and with the sun behind me,
I could barely make out what was on the screen.

Even the foliage was impatient. It takes six button pushes to get to the place where
I can hoodwink the #&*@! thing to lower the exposure a stop or two. I don't think
Pentax (or any of the other brands) really expects anyone to be poking around down
there, so why make it easy?

But I'm just ranting. You could fit five of these waterproof cameras in your shirt pocket.
And I've taken a lot of photos with this little guy that I wouldn't want to part with.
Truthfully, it is amazing technology.
