Hi, Neil.
 
How does the Fuji F30 compare with the Olympus c7070? I am not yet able to locate any of the discontinued model.  
 
Thanks for your advice in advance.

Fred,
  I've been using it for two weeks now and it's a nice little camera -
Advantages
- low noise sensor (iso 100 - 3200 ) iso 400 no apparent noise and iso 800 shows only little noise.
- fast at 2.2 frames/sec up to 3 frames or continuous at 0.9 frames/sec  until card is full .
- last 3 frames is a nice feature (hold down the shutter for up to 40 frames but will only record the lsst 3 frames when released ).
Disadvantages
- no filter thread for adapter
- no rotatable screen
- no RAW or histogram
- no manual settings for Contrast/Saturation/Noise
  You can still get the Olympus 7070wz on EBay.
Neil.

Thanks, Neil.
 
I am still hoping to get a c7070.  I have been keeping an eye on eBay too but the final prices tend to be quite high.
 
Cheers
Fred
