Landscapes aren't, but this was the OP's original comment:

"I primarily like to shoot candid and informal portraits and then I do
a lot of hiking and fishing. I'm looking for a camera that isn't as
heavy or as big as a DSLR ."

And later:

"My problem with my D70 is that when trying to take candids in the
context of barbecues, parties and family life, is that the camera
intimidates people and gets in the way of what I want to capture?"

My impression is that landscapes aren't very high on her list. :-)
