I was told to get around a 3megapixel camera, anything about that wasn't worth the extra money unless you wanted to do print work.
Url I was pointed to http://www.imaging-resource.com/ Has a great price search |

3MP bah! from dcresource :
"Overall, the photo quality on the F707 was stellar. Where the Coolpix 950 was the benchmark for photo quality a few years ago, I think the F707 will be the new benchmark going forward -- at least for a while. " "What I liked: 5 million pixels for under $1000! Feature packed 5X optical zoom Excellent photo quality Very good bundle (except for Memory Stick) Manual white balance and other manual controls Battery lasts a long time What I didn't care for: Proprietary Memory Stick, flash support A RAW mode would be nice No true continuous shooting mode" "How Does it Compare? I think Sony caught many manufacturers by surprise with their announcement of the DSC-F707 -- especially the $999 price point. Olympus, Nikon, and Minolta are all selling 4-5 Megapixel cameras for more than the F707. While I haven't used the Coolpix 5000 yet, I have used the Minolta DiMAGE 7, and I can say that the F707 is a lot nicer for much less money. The F707's photo quality is outstanding, the feature-set strong, and the 5X zoom much better than the usual 3X zoom. The camera also has -- get this -- a proprietary battery that actually lasts a long time! The things I'm not enthused about are few in number: I don't like the Memory Stick (in general), and would prefer a RAW mode instead of the massive TIFF files that the camera saves. If I didn't already own an Olympus E-10, this would be the camera I'd buy myself, most likely." ------------------ LinkUpPro, The best TGP submission tool, End of fucking story.

Well, if Sony didn't use those fucking proprietary memory sticks, they might actually have a decent camera. Bastards.

I had the pleasure of using a mavica for a few years and other than the lower pixel power of the one I used... it was a great camera.
I really liked the fact that it saved the images as jpgs and you could take as many pics as you had floppys on hand (a spare battery was a must though). I've got my eye on a better version that wal mart sells for $400. |

I got a Sony 707 and it rocks. The price on the memory sticks have been coming down. A 128MB stick used to sell for about $150 a month ago, now you can pick them up for around a $100.
