I tested many others within a similar price-range - (the Minolta Dimage, Sony Digi Cams, etc..) but nothing matched the Nikon 5700. Picture quality is excellent for the price, but i would suggest that you purchase high-capacity flash cards. If i think of any other points, i will let you know. Many thanks, Rob.
