Am off to Kenya in a few weeks and need an easy-to-handle camera that will be up to taking cracking pics of animals and such but won't take me so long to work out that by the time I've focused they've left on their great migration... or been eaten. Any ideas?

Is it easy to get hang of?

I have no lenses or anything other than my teeny weeny Sony cybershot which is great for quick snapshots but not quite up to dramatic landscapes or great close-ups. Am a learner, essentially, but with a rough idea of what's involved!

Well, a nice person has offered to lend me a new Olympus Sp-590 UZ. So not an SLR, but supposedly a super-dooper compact with 20X optical zoom. Am going to give it a try out and see how things go. Will report back.
