'the DSC-F707 lacks important prosumer features, like adjustable contrast and color saturation, a histogram, and even a black-and-white mode (an odd oversight).'

'When not in use, the display can be inverted and folded back against the rear of the camera body, protecting the screen from fingerprints and damage from bumps and scrapes.'
