CNET Review
The Good: Attractive, compact, and portable; excellent in-camera help system; some unique and useful features.
The Bad: Average image quality; slow recharge with bundled charger.
The Bottom Line: Although a great camera for newbies who need their hands held, the R707's photos aren't too impressive.

Review Summary: The R707 is a very capable camera, with lots of options and available user controls. It can be used as a simple "point and shoot" camera by beginners, but allows the more experienced photographer to make choices of almost every shooting parameter.
