Opinion: With prices in Denmark I have to compare this to Nikon Coolpix 3100, and I must say the a70 is better.
As I am using it for vacation foto its nice that it uses aa batteries I can get anywhere.
And I can re-use my CD card from my old camera.
Easy to use and perfect for an amateur photografer like me.

Opinion: I don't actually have this camera, but from all I've seen, it looks great! The best features about it seem to be the presense of manual apperture and shutter speed controls among other things, it's very compact size, 5 cm macro range, and it's low price. It also uses AA batteries which Is great!! You just use rechargable ones and your all set.
Apart from all that it also has an optional thread adapter!!

Problems: Aside from a hot show it has pretty much everything you'd want except for it's lack of MP's... and the fact that you can't save photos in RAW format. Well there might some other things but I'd have to actually use the camera to say.
