Anne A.
the 710 is 299.00
do you plan on shooting any video?
no
Anne A.
ok
the 700 shoots video, but the 710 and 720 do not
i just need my photoshots to be extremely sharp and cleaar
Anne A.
they are all about equal in image quality
the 720 has more zoom if that is a consideration
how much is the 700?
Anne A.
349.00
which one is more popular?
Anne A.
I think the 720 because of the zoom
and whats the 710?
Anne A.
299.00
whats the difference between the 700 and 710?
Anne A.
higher speed video, external mic jack, longer battery life, hirhger resolution video,a nd faster shooting from the 700
so 710 is better than the 700?
Anne A.
no the 700 is better
in what way?
Anne A.
all the ways listed above
i thought u said that on the 710
which one is more expensive?
Anne A.
the 700 and 720
720 is not in my price range
im deciding between 700 and 710
which one is more popular
Anne A.
the 700 - it has more features
but it is 349
in image quality which one is better?
Anne A.
they are about the same there
the sx710 is 299.00
cheaper means less quality?
Anne A.
no.
lower price
the 700 just has more features than the 710. so you're paying the extra for those features
what does it mean if has 20 mp?
Anne A.
that is the resolution
so its probably sharper the pictures
Anne A.
not necessarily
so what difference does it make
Anne A.
the difference will be hardly noticeable if at all
higher resolution means you can print bigger
do you plan on making large prints?
not necassarily but if you can print bigger usually its means its clearer
Anne A.
if you zoom in completely , it will be clearer
yes that means its clearer ..in that way the 710 will be better
i need my images to have high resolution
Anne A.
ok
then the 710 is the way to go, if you want higher resolution
