Absolutely yes at that price. Make sure if you are ordering online that the vendor has a good http://www.bizrate.comI am looking for a compact digital which is small, reasonably
responsive and takes decent pictures. It seems many of the reviews
of the F700 had a problem with the camera when it was priced at
$600. Now that the camera is significantly cheaper do F700 owners
recommend it more? Also does anyone have any sample people photos

It all depends what you are looking but what you say sounds like
the F700 is made for you.

I love this camera. This is coming from someone who owns a 10d and about $5000 in lenses. At first I made the mistake of examining the pictures from this camera at 100% and comparing it to my 10D, as well as images from other cameras online. No competition. In most cases the f700 would look like a noisy mess. And this is after paying almost $600 for it. I was p@$%ed! However, there was no ignoring the uniqueness of this camera compared to its compact peers. First of all, its super fast. I bought a canon G3 and had to return it....after using my DSLR it was agonizingly SLOW. Secondly, 5 frames per second. Do you know how useful this can be? I took about 80 pics of my 13 month old in about 5 minutes today. Then went threw them all, deleted the blurry ones, out of focus ones, poorly composed ones, etc.....and now I have 7 or 8 great keepers. I'd also like to mention the vivid colors. Wonderful.I am looking for a compact digital which is small, reasonably

The F700 is an excellent choice,Tim.Good resolution,very fast(I used a Canon SD100 last night-big difference even when the AiAF was turned off)excellent ergonomics(especially compared with the F601 I used before)-One touch access to almost everything.I am looking for a compact digital which is small, reasonably

Did you resize to 4mp first?The F700 has about 4mp worth resolution so when viewed at 6mp the look noisier that they really are.The 6mp is basically for printing and should hold slightly more detail than the resized 4mp but the latter has a much better detail-to-image-size ratio.What other cameras did you compare it to?Sure the S400 & S50 are better but the difference is not that great IMO.Then again,given your extensive photography related backgroung you should be able to tell the difference much more easily.I love this camera.

Spendthrift, that is one of THE VERY BEST photos, quality wise, subject wise, theme wise I have seen from an F700. The photo quality is truly incredible. So you used RAW.. wow.

Other things I would say are excellent movie quality (for a digital
camera), ISO 800/1600 does open certain posibilities, manual
controls.
There is virtually no other camera I can think of with full manual
controls @ this size. This is like 1/2 the volume of a Canon
S45/S50.
The resolution is decent... but the thing that strikes the most
right away when using one the first time, is definitively the
speed. Speed of startup/shutdown/picture taking is simply amazing
on this camera.
