I think you can get arrested for that sort of thing... but try DVspot.com for reviews and then somewhere like Unbeatable.co.uk for prices.

1/2000 sec shutter speed should be fast enough?

bollox 2 sony.. is this something ure going 2 use for general use 2? if so it needs to fit in ure pocket! If it was my choice i would undoubtably get a minolta G600 for £250 and slap a 512 sd in there for £50! theres ure £300, i have worked in a camera shop dor 3 years and have used almost every digital camera out in those years.. needless to say um saving for the g600.. i mean 6mega pixels in ure pocket!! awesome!

that sony doesnt look all that tbh mate, especially the samples your posting up...the quality isnt all that Although the last sample looks alright, but the first three look shoddy and grainy.

Personally mate, i would go with a minolta. Got one here and its pretty much pukka...all the S404 isnt the best camera in the world, but the quality is still better than the sony you posted.

So absolultly identical? My phone uses Duo's so that's not a problem for me.

I'm most impressed by the 3 shot burst on the V1, you got any pics icy of moving objects taken with it? on fastest shutter speed?

You can only snap at 2000th if you have the light to do so.

Most digicams suffer from a serious amount of lag between pressing the shutter and taking the pic. I'd recommend one where you can dial up manual mode, set the exposure, focus it manually and hopefully photograph a moving car not a section of empty road.

Or buy this http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=3825363655
