Default Stunning Sail


What do you think of the Sony DSC S500? Nikon 5600? Nikon
L3?



I have not tried the low-end 6mp Sony. Some sonys have focus issues in
dim light while others do better. I wouldn't but one without trying it
first or seeing a lot of reviews.
Please don't buy the Nikon Coolpix line. They have the worst auto focus
module going. They are all quite poor in dim light and only mediocre in
most other conditions. They are also fragile. I just used a Nikon S5
and it died after a minor bump. Before it died it had a typical AF
failure rate for Nikon...awful unit. Nikon makes great DSLRs and
terrible P&S cameras.
Casio/Pentax is probably the best pick along with Fuji.

The Casio Z120 is excellent and cheap to buy. It's Pentax version is
more pricey...but no different.
