Just posted! Sony DSC-F707 review update
Thursday, 6 September 2001  04:00 GMT

I've just completed an update of our Sony DSC-F707 review with a full production camera. Good news is that the green cast on auto white balance is now gone, and that colours have been toned down (although red is still quite strong). Other good news - startup times are now sub three seconds. I've also posted a brand new samples gallery with 31 photos! As far as I know this is the first review of a production DSC-F707.

As well as fully verifying the review text I have also re-shot a lot of samples and updated test results etc. For those who read the review before this update here's a log of changes:
