Thanks for all your help. I think a Mirrorless is what I need and have narrowed it down to the Nikon 1.

Two questions on this -

1. There seems to be around a $150 differance between J1 and J3. Is the extra worth it when for me 10 Mill Mega pixels will be enough as I am not looking at blowing pictures up. Is the HDR worth it? I don't intend to take a lot of pictures per minute so the 10 that the J1 offers me is enough.

2. I read that the Nikon 1 uses a smaller sensor then the others? What are the negatives in this?

Any other advantages/disadvantages for Nikon 1? Which one of the 1's would you recommend? There are so many S1, J1, J2, J3????
