Pocket compact flash camera
Hi,
I have an Nikon D70, but I want a high quality compact camera that uses compact flash cards, because I own a one gig and two 512mb cards. Any suggestions? I would prefer something with some sort of manual control override. Regards Graham

Full manual controls. For telephoto, I would recommend the Panasonic FZ20 because it has image stabilisation and a fast lens, but if you want something taking CF cards and a little smaller perhaps the image stabilised Canon S1 IS might fit the bill? DPreview is a good site at which to compare models. David

Hi,
I get very good prints up to 8.5 x 11" with my new Canon Digital Elph, which takes CF cards. At the highest res. and least compression, my 512 MB card still gives me 198 pictures. It has a nice 3:1 optical zoom lens, and some manual functions.
