I bought this camera as a birthday gift for my fater-in-law, who will become 61 years old. Taking his age into a consideration, I needed a camera he can work with without much effort. I've heard Sony models are relatively easier than others, and I completely agree with that. I own the Olympus C-3020Z, and it's way too complicated compared to P72. I don't know what P71 was like, but I like this updated version a lot. I would keep it for myself if it weren't for my F-I-L ^_^;
Problems:
very little manual settings work with.
