    CNET Review

    March 8, 2005

    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.

    Review Summary: This is an attractive combination of a competitive price, small size and capable imaging, with a few advanced extras thrown in. The built-in help would benefit novice photographers.
