Are their better solutions in the same price range? Also, how big is this camera? My brother bought his Fujifilm S700 on an impulse, figuring he'd try it out and return it if he developed buyer's remorse. He was pleasantly surprised with the results. He likes the relatively compact size (compared to an SLR) and he especially likes the double-shot mode where the camera takes one picture with a flash and one without with one push of the shutter button. It saves both and you can decide which one you like better later on.

See the grip? Imagine 4 "AA" batteries in there and you will get the idea about the size. Steve's says it's 4.2"(W)脳 3.0"(H)脳 3.2"(D) or 106.1(W)脳 75.7(H)脳 80.7(D) mm.

Steve says, "The only downfalls I found were the above average amounts of purple fringing, and the fact the LCD blacks out in between shots (when shooting in a sequence not burst mode.)"
See here for a sample of the purple fringing he is talking about. This will occur in a high contrast situation and in this sample, you can see it clearly around the wheels and any chrome trim. This is ISO 64, too, where you would expect the very best image quality. Click on "All sizes" and then "Original" to see it.
