<< Speaking of expensive (:--)), has anyone tried, or seen (in person) the new Sony DSC-F707? It received some good reviews (speed-wise) on the dpreview.com site. >> I purchased a Sony DSC-S70 about a year ago, a 3.34MP camera with a Zeiss lens. I use it professionally in my marketing/advertising business, and have been VASTLY satisfied with both the quality of the photos and the versatility of the camera itself. I recently photographed about 300 pieces of Middle Eastern antiquities using the macro mode and was amazed at the clarity of the images using only natural light in the room... extreme detail, very sharp. Yes, there IS a lag, esp. depending on the resolution of the image/size of the file being stored; but I no longer have drawers of photos/negatives I have to go through... I have the images all stored on disk, ready to use without scanning. I'd recommend my Sony camera without hesitation, but I don't think they're making that particular model any longer... perhaps the new models have the Zeiss lens?
