W1 vs. W5 vs. W7 [Archive]
Although you may have decided on a W5, the LCD screen resolution will be somewhat less impressive than the W1 due to the decreased pixels.... Pretty much everything is the same between the W1 and the W5....

W1 vs. W5 vs. W7
Pretty much everything is the same between the W1 and the W5.... I never had the blur problem with the W1, so I don't see myself going with the W5....

W1 vs. W5???
I read on some forum that the W5 may be the updated version of the W1 that will fix the problems with blurriness?... As far as specs, I have no clue except that the W5 is similar to the W1, and the W7 is a 7mp version of it....

W1 vs. W5 vs. W7
Although you may have decided on a W5, the LCD screen resolution will be somewhat less impressive than the W1 due to the decreased pixels.... The W5 is about the same price as the W1, and since the W5 has 32mb internal memory, I might as well get it....

DSC W1 VS. DSC W5 red
It seems that the W5 and W1 both have a certain amount of red-eye, but that users have found the W5 to be sightly better.... I think the W5 will serve you better....
