Default Stunning Sail

The Fuji Finepix S7000 kicks ass on the Nikon D70!

What do you think of the little Fuji A500. The A600 doesn't
have a viewfinder and I'd prefer one.

You think the Z60 is better than a Sony W7 or W 5?



The W5 and W7 are two of the Sony units I know have poor

focusing when
the light is not bright. If you only intend on using them

outdoors,
then they would be fine. I also take issue with Sony stuff

at times
because it can break...seems more delicate than some other

brands.
Sounds silly, but you can look up the W5 on Amazon and

read the
customer reviews. Some time ago I remember too many people

agreeing the
focus was a weak point. Some of this is operator error of

course. But I
tried a W5 and got blurry shots as well because it could

not lock focus
indoors very well. The Sony L1 was far better.
Your expectations are what's important here.
