If you are in the market for a high-end digicam, the Sony DSC-F828 is worthy of your consideration (Steve's Digicams - 1/15/04)

The Sony CyberShot F828 impressed this pro reviewer with its "robust shooting performance" and "excellent" image quality. The camera feels great in the hand, and its build quality is "awesome." read original review

The F828 is the first Sony camera with a CompactFlash slot! (DC Resource - 1/5/04)

A reasonably positive review of the Sony F828, which takes good pictures and has an excellent video mode but exhibits disappointingly high levels of image noise and purple fringing. If you're hoping that the F828 can live up to the top digital SLRs, then you will be disappointed. If you're comparing it to advanced cameras like the Minolta A1 and Canon G5, then you will find the F828 usually comes out on top. read original review

All in all, a very impressive offering (Imaging Resource - 9/29/03)

This reviewer is withholding final judgment until he can test a production model of the Sony F828, but he is very impressed with his first look at this groundbreaking camera. read original review
