S5200 is old.

Consider the new S5600FD instead. It has a very good sensor, and wide angle coverage.

hey guys, thanks! haha..bought myself a S6500fd today, can't wait to test it out in the following weeks! comes with 1GB XD, tripod, case and screen protector @ $699. i think it's the only ultra-zoom other than the FZ7 in the <$700 category, and that's a really good price considering it's only launched recently..
