Picked this up nearly 3 months ago now as my third compact digital after having a kodak for my first then a canon IXUS 500 after that.
I also shoot with a Canon EOS 300d so was looking for great image quality, and a general upgrade from my IXUS.
I went for the R7 because it starts up and shoots so fast its perfect as a little point and shoot. The zoom level is brilliant and I don't even use digital zoom.
As far as settings go its got all that you would expect in terms of the automatic options and then for the more advanced users the array of custom options are far beyond any compact digital I have used in the past. Its even got manual focus!

I've not really found any faults with the camera so far, it does everything I need and more, looks really cool and is really easy to use.
