I've only purchased this camera a few weeks ago, but have taken it on holiday and i work in I.T. so I've used numerous digital cameras from a wide price range. I would reccommend the 720 to anyone, it cost about £150 and the picture quality is excellent (3.3MP). The camera has a 12X zoom ( 3x optical and 4x digital)which is impressive considering the cameras pricing. It also records audio and video (max 30 secs), which not always needed is nice to have. It takes memory cards with a max of 128MB of storage (there is only 16MB on the camera itself), a 128MB card costs around £70, which will allow you to take about 100 pictures on the highest quality and over 1000 on the lowest. i hate to admitt it but I also dropped the camera and it survived!!

It also has 3 levels of quality with 1 star being the lowest quality for sending photos by email. It can take a maximum of 128MB memory card which we have since purchased for about £30 from the USA and this can take up to approximatley 100 good quality photos which is excellent for when ...
