Had a stylus 770 for a few years and did ok. BUT, this year it it spent a little time in a pocket full of water and died.
Tech service told me I should have sent it in for a periodic seal redo to insure waterproofing. . . . . . HUH ???

Wants $ 115 to repair.

Hello, Sony.

May fortune favor the foolish....

Hello, Sony.
I think I'm going to go with that Sony we talked about. As much as it would pain me to do so, I'll probably get it from BestBuy if their Replacement Warranty is reasonable.

The sony model is dsc-tx5, some specs, Waterproof, dustproof, shockproof, freeze-proof, 3.0" wide touch screen, 4x optical zoom, "Exmor R" sensor, iSweep Panorama Mode, 10fps at full 10.2 megapixels.

Not sure how good it is, but if its like all the other sony stuff ive owned, its probably a winner.

Seems like the average price is $329.00
