Have the Casio bought to 344.- in a shop in Kapfenberg Austria. Use even a Sony Alpha with various lenses from 15-750mm. The image quality of an SLR is obviously better. The noise of an SLR is naturally lower. Who purely zooms in photos and will enjoy low noise to do this quietly. The Casio FH 20 is a camera that can otherwise. Highspeed Photos / Videos! Movements can be studied unique here. No other camera that I know can keep up here. In addition, the images of Casio of very good quality. Calling all amateur photographers: Do not be unsettled by the noise fetishists. Camera is good and easy to use. Zoom range is enormous. The autofocus is only slowly when the camera is not held still in his hand. (With 520mm focal length not an easy task for untrained) In a quiet little hand there no problems with the autofocus. Absolute buy recommendation!
