I recently purchased this camera for a trip to South Africa and Im gladI made the choice to buy this one.
I looked at many different cameras in this price range and this one came out on top for features and picture quality.
The camera is small and stylish and the buttons are all well positioned and easy to use. The menus are easy to use and offer many different options including "best shot" options which adjust the camera to the optimum settings for different conditions.
The photos are easy to transfer to computer as it can be set up to work just like a portable hard drive where the pictures can just be removed from the camera with no additional software.
The camera has a 3x optical zoom which is common to all the cameras around the same price. The pictures that I have taken exceeded my expectations they are all clear and sharp and look exactly how they should.
The only problem with the camera is the lack of a viewfinder but the lcd screen is easy to see even in sunny conditions which makes up for the lack of viewfinder.
Overall I would recommend this camera, it uses a rechargeable battery and the battery life is excellent when fully charged, a full charge only takes roughly 2 hours.
