Default Re: Nikon D5000 SLR

I have been thinking about another camera and having about forty or so film cameras and five digitals already I thought of a getting a Sony SLR so that I could use my Minolta AF lenses.
But the more I thought about my uses for it and the bother of changing and carting around the lenses, my thoughts have changed to the point and shoot super zooms as being good enough.
Sure the quality is not as good as the better SLR's with the bigger sensors and good lenses but so what, they are compact, have reasonable picture quality and can be had for less than half the price of the basic SLR.
The Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ35 can be had for $310 at the store as mentioned above. You can buy two and still have money left over for some accessories.
Anyone got any experience with these cameras?
