Great Little Camera
- Pros: Easy camera to use. Good scene modes, used the face-priority, Digital Image Stabilization while on a boat on Alaskan water and all pictures come out excellent. Charged the battery and took pictures all day (200+) and it's still going like the e-bunny. All the pictures we took came out great with clear, bright colors and images. Also didn't have any screen glare problems under the bright sun. Son has already claimed it...lol
- Cons: None yet , but would like to see it cheaper and you YES can put the battery in the charger backwards and upside down.
- Other Thoughts: Great size to put in pocket when out-and-about hiking or bar hopping...ect and don't feel like packing a larger camera, I almost always carry my Coolpix 995 and D200 with extras
I like it...but....
- Pros: High quality images, nice zoom, good features, small, nice weight, comes with everything you need to directly upload photos directly to your PC/Mac instantly.
- Cons: Not the best AutoFocus, tends to be slow taking photos(in my case of photographing fencing events, I often missed the shot I intended to photograph), seems like for the price it could have more, like features, or something, reduced price would be better suited for this model. without the flash even with a very steady hand blur occurs though it doesn't always do it. Flash tends to be overly strong casting shadows on people and leaving the person or object too bright.
- Other Thoughts: I liked the camera, it gets the job done, but barely. I like the quality at 10 mega pixels, but with the blurred photos when not using the flash and the overly lit photos when using the flash getting good quality photos is difficult. I'd be a little more happy with this camera if it were cheaper, and maybe had an update capability to add more features or something.
