Pros: Good price. Image stabilization. Great picture quality. Superb movie mode. Excellent macro mode.
Cons: Noise at higher ISO. Poor low light performance. Autofocus issues with low-light/telephoto shots.
The Bottom Line: Overall, at current prices, the DiMAGE Z5 is a great camera for the money, assuming you will mostly be shooting in daylight or bright light conditions.

Pros: 12X optical zoom, great vga movie mode, intuitive controls and lots more features
Cons: Image noise at high iso settings, movies saved in the (intractable) Quicktime format
The Bottom Line: Image stabilization that works makes this one of the few affordable entry level mega zoom cameras that you should consider...
