Right time for me to annoy you all (or Stu at least) again. I'm finally going to get my new camera, so I was wondering what would be the best of these 2, finepix s5600 and s7000? From what I can make out the spec for the s5600 is better than the s7000!?!? So what would you suggest, or is there a better camera in that price bracket that I've overlooked?

Glad your getting a new one Ross.A friend of mine recently got the S5600 and is over the moon with it.I had a little go with it and found it was a cracking little camera..whats your price limit? As the nikon D50 can be had for about £300 and even a used D70 or D70s for a similar price.

So the s5600 is definately worth it then? It's the worst part about buying a camera, the last 2 I've bought ended up being a total waste of money. Laughing

Price-wise, since it's christmas time, I don't really want to go over the 200 mark. I saw the Minolta Dimage z5 for a good price, but am dubvious about shipping it from the US.

But as soon as the new year comes I'll be saving up for a D70, I still can't believe the quality of those 'tic photos you posted up a while back.

Cheers mate..Yep I think the fuji is a great little camera and I know varanus used to get some great shots from his fuji.Whats the best price you've seen on the s5600?..My mate paid £150..absolute bargain.

The fuji it is then. Laughing

Cheapest I've seen it thus far is 142 notes, doubt I'll get it any cheaper than that. Very Happy

Its a steal at that price and should do what you need and more.I think you'll like it. Wink

Ian Weightman has just got one of those on my recommendation as well as a 512mb memory card and a protective case for just over 150!
