Invasion of goldfinches

"What's the point of buying a big Niger seed feeder, when we don't have any Goldfinches in the garden?"
If you provide it, They will come!
And so they did. We had 6 at one point, but here-in lies the rub. This furry camera and I have had it. A delay of up to 3 seconds, from pressing the shutter to the picture being taken.
I need an SLR and I will get one.
Back to the forums to get feedback and help on what and which one to choose.
