Started off with a Sony about 4 years ago, then a Kodak last year and this year, it's Fuji F700 all the way. This thing is awesome. 6.2MP, a bad@ss zoom, and it even takes great pictures at dusk. I'd recommend it to anyone. The Sony was a 1.3MP and was ok at the time. The Kodak never really got great pics and it took awhile for it to "boot up".

I'll be in the market soon for a Prosumer type digital camera. I'm not 100% sure which model I'll be getting, but optical zoom, boot time and form factor are at the top of the list for what's important to me.
