This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Really wonderful for waht is meant to do. Very high quality pics when in higer modes ISO functionality, AUTO Smile pics (see other thoughts) more modes than most will need
Cons: Not as quick as my D60 but not meant to be either. It would have been nice for a SD card to be included and some lcd protectors.
Other Thoughts: Will take a pic (while in smile mode) without any input from holder. This freaked me out while practicing before giving it to my wife, who will be the primary user.
