I know there are a few people on here that have these models of cameras. Could the 5700 owners please help me justify the extra money for the 5700 over the 5400?

It seems the reviews on the 5700 are not as stellar as the 5400. The 5700 seems to have troubles focusing in low light conditions. Many reviews say it's great for other things, but if taking pics indoors then to just forget it. Do you 5700 owners find this to be true?

On the other hand, no one seems to have anything bad to say about the 5400. So therein lies my question. What makes the 5700 that much better if there are complaints about the performance and it's more expensive?

I've never owned these cameras nor been around anyone that has. I'm just going by what I've researched on the net...just thought I'd see if any of you Coolpix owners had to go through this same decision.
