Well, I was checking prices on lenses for the W1 I own, and got a little excited 'bout it. But the thing is. Is is worth buying, as my camera is just a P&S one, with some manual control?
There is 1 kind of macro, 1 wide-angle, and 2 kinds of telephoto lenses (still need to buy the lens mount).
Should I spend some bucks on it, or just wait, gather some more money and buy a better/bolder camera? I do like this little beauty a lot, but I'm concerned about spending some extra money and then it turns out not to be a good deal.
what yall say?

| If you do like your camera. You feel the need for more possibilities from your lenses and you don't plan to go DSLR anytime soon then go for it. You'll enjoy your camera only better. That said, if you ever plan to go DSLR then save the money for it because a P&S is hard to sell with lenses. |

Hummm. Well, that's my biggest concern. but either way, I can get some1 to buy it later if I decide to go dSLR. The other thing is (not much to do with it but, well kinda) I'm planning on moving to Singapore, late this year, more likely next year. And I heard that electronics in general are VERY cheap there (shopping is the country's national sport).
So, I might just leave the camera for my family (lenses won't be of much use, but.....) or even sell it and get a dSLR at Singapore.
Again, an investment of almost US$ 500. Is it worth for just an year of usage? Or just save the bucks for the big one? Money is starting to tickle inside my pocket! LoL |

Save the money.
I have a tele X2 for my A70 and I seldom use it.
I paid 50USD and now I think it would have been better to keep the bucks.
