Re: Could an expert advise me please

Three weeks ago the Sony H9 was on my short list but after looking at lots of reviews it seemed to get only very average reports. So I ended up with a Pansonic FZ18 and have very pleased with it. I was persuaded by the good reviews.

I did get a Sony in my hands but it didn't feel very well built but I loved the 3" adjustable LCD screen.

Re: Could an expert advise me please

Can I ask, out of curiosity, why this particular camera?

yeah, i like sony and allready have a few 2gb sony memory stick pro's.

I like the look of it and have used an old cybershot and allways found it great, also the carl zeiss lense sounds appealing.

I can get it for £240 delivered next day.
