Excellent Camera
I needed a new camera for a holiday. I had specific requirements: easy to use point and shoot, reasonable zoom, some flexibility if I felt the need to be creative - and a camera that would produce good quality photographs.
I looked in a few photography magazines - was confused by the huge range of digital cameras - came to the net (realising that it would probably be worse).
This camera appeared to have the features I wanted and whilst, alas, there was only 1 review, it was a good one by someone who seemed to know his stuff.
When the camera arrived I couldn't get over how small it was - tho' once I was used to handling it, not at all uncomfortable to hold.
Personally, I didn't find the instruction booklet particularly easy to understand (tho' I do have a short attention span). Over the course of 2 weeks before the holiday I spent several 20 minute sessions familiarising myself with the camera and its operation.
I was extremely pleased with it. The zoom is great - with the option to 'extend the zoom' - which I found useful (went to Lake Como, Italy and this functionality was essential to some fantastic Lake shots).
The 'Intelligent Auto' (the camera does it for you) is the point and shoot functionality I want and also useful when those who aren't used to the camera take photos. The face recognition system is great for these reasons also.
I agree that the 3" LCD makes it so much easier to see what the photo will look like and also for viewing afterwards.
I advise that you buy a second rechargeable battery (incredibly expensive - £50!).
So far, the camera has been relatively painless to use and the photos are excellent: I'm really pleased.
