Did not have a chance to test it on the slopes yet. But I have been playing around with it. So far I am happy. No, the lag delay does not appear to be a problem. I am amazed by one thin: as I said I bought the camera with extra lenses (a zoom and a wide angle convertitors). I took a picture of an old picture of mine at 650mm equivalent. The skier on the original pic was 1/2 inch long, I made a pic with a skier taking half the size of the pic and the quality hardly suffered. When I got into the digital zoom (2x) to fill the full picture, of course, the quality suffered as to be expected, but the pic was still acceptable. I will continue testing, but until we get snow to ski it is hard to really try the camera on the field.
