| 452094 | 2006-05-04 12:03:00 | Went into Dickies to buy a S5600($546). The chap tried to sell me the Panasonic FZ7($697) The plus side was a lcd in the eye piece,adjutable for eye condition,+++ other features,the downside for me is the type of battery,one that if it goes flat whilst away from charger,you are in trouble.a second battery is over a $100. I would love the opinions from those that know about these things. I asked if he had any S602's,I couldn't stop him from laughing,some people are so rude. ;) I thought you would have bought that 5600 by now Cic. It might pay to look further. I saw it advertised for $500 in some junk mail recently. In your comment above, were you referring to the adjustable eyepiece as a plus in the Panasonic? The 5600 also has dioptre adjustment in the eye level viewfinder. Get the 5600 (if you cant find a S602, haha). It uses AA cells, which are very convenient & economical. Well, you know that. It has been discussed before. Good luck. |

I can get the S5600 for $470 on the net ,but I prefer to pay the xtra just in case of problems. No it's not just a diopter,there is a small screen in the eye piece which gives a acurate view when doing macro etc. Dicky will only bring the price down if I can show a lower price from a advert from a similar kind of shop,no web stuff. The AA cells are influencing me at the moment. |

Hi Harvey Normans have the S5600 at the moment for $499. It is advertised in the best buys brochure that landed in our letterbox yesterday afternoon. If you don't have it/don't get it I could mail it to you and you could take it in to Dickies (or you could just go to Harvey Normans!!!). I have the S5000. Great camera and I recommend the S5600 to people that ask for advice. The ability to use AA's has saved me on occasion and always has a bearing on what I buy (I have many rechargeable batteries around the house now!) HTH |

Does the brochure mention that it is exclusive to NP,the brochure doesn't seem to mention S5600 and there web site quotes it at $545.? |
