A small and versatile camera that takes great pictures during the day
by moonritz on November 2, 2007
Pros: 1) Takes beautiful, clear pictures during the day. 2) Has a large LCD. 3) The controls are very logically laid out and the camera has a very easy learning curve. 4) One can change settings easily.
Cons: 1) Pictures taken at night are not as sharp as ones taken in good light. 2) Camera does not capture fast action in low light without blurring the picture. 3) Battery life is mediocre.
Summary: Overall, it’s an impressive and attractive camera with great versatility and limited functionality.
More Pros: 5) Has great editing features. 6) Static, enclosed lens does not collect dust. 7) ...Summary: Overall, it’s an impressive and attractive camera with great versatility and limited functionality.
More Pros: 5) Has great editing features. 6) Static, enclosed lens does not collect dust. 7) Flash range is great and flash intensity can be changed. 8) It is small in size and very versatile. 9) Takes nice, clear video. 10) Touch screen LCD is attractive.
More Cons: 4) The included camera charger is slow. 5) Camera stand and a fast charger are not included and need to be purchased separately. 6) Without a separately purchased stand, the camera’s battery has to be removed every time for charging and placed back in. 7) The beautiful touch screen LCD sometimes needs to be pressed more than once in order for it to do a specific function. 8) Red-eye reduction could be improved. 9) The zoom button is small and not convenient to operate. 9) The camera comes with a useful, plastic pointing device (for the touch screen), but the camera has no enclosure for it and it has to be attached to the strap.3 out of 4 users found this user opinion helpful.

Ok Camera, could be more intuitive
by in2explore on June 26, 2009
Pros: Simple adjustments to over expose and color balance using touch screen like the iphone.
Cons: THERE IS A SILLY DESIGN FLAW. If you put the cam in Burst mode, it doesn't warn you that flash will no longer work, not in the manual either. Manual doesn't even mention burst- and yahoo! has lots of questions from ppl that couldn't figure this out.
Summary: For the record if you can't figure out why you can no longer access the flash, check the following: menu -> record mode -> single (not burst!) ...
Summary: For the record if you can't figure out why you can no longer access the flash, check the following: menu -> record mode -> single (not burst!) With an onscreen menu- it's easy to change something by accident without knowing - or a warning that you can't use ur flash any more.

One amazing camera!!
by mrprofessor on January 16, 2009
Pros: This camera takes amazing pictures. Almost everything turns out real clear. I worked up in Alaska for a time and the 16:9 ratio was perfect for those amazing landscape shots. All my friends and family wish they could have my camera.
Cons: The zoom is nothing to write home about, but that is to be expected with a point and shoot.
Summary: A perfect point and shoot camera, with an amazing touch screen.

Summary: I was all so very excited about this product and finally when it came, I was disappointed. I liked the sleekness, touch panel, look and the great pictures it holds. But, the pictures when loaded onto a computer, there is no depth in the pic. Also, the pixels can be clearly seen. The pic looks like it has been taken from a cellphone camera. All in all not a great camera except for the slekness and the touch screen.
