I got this cam at bestbuy for $229 with $50 rebate and free shipping so its the best value for a 8mp cam.
The video allows zooming and stabilization too which is unheard of for this price. The customization is outstanding and the menu system is great. With the 1.3 firmware update rechargable batteries give you all you need in one sitting and if you have a spare set you are golden. With 1GB card you can take all the pix/vids you want and it has that neat panoramic feature too.
Overall I don't think you can get a better cost/benefit cam now.
Problems:
Raw takes awhile to write but I seldom use that feature.
