    Cheers mate...

    Hmm, saving of £20...nah, it ain't worth it, thanks anyway!
  • Get a canon A95 for about £220 if you can stretch to it. Simply the best out there under £300

    Thanks for the advice, I have a lot respect for Canon but having done a lot a research I will stick with the DSC-W1...main reasons: excellent reviews, compact, only brand I know which makes hi quality VGA videos in MPG format (>>click'n'burn>>play the video on my Divx player) and lastly...a Sony!
