Advantages: Neat and compact, easy to use Disadvantages: Nothing major
This is a great little camera if you don't want something bulky and complicated. It's light and easy to carry, simple to operate, and ideal for capturing those scenes and events that you often come across unawares. You can extend the memory with an SD card (I have, with no problems). It can be a little heavy on batteries (2 X AAA), but it does automatically switch off if not used for a few minutes. It has inbuilt flash if required, and can act as ... ...It comes with a soft carrying pouch, but I would advise buying a more rigid one (e.g. leather) from a camera shop, because pressure on my jacket pocket cracked the viewing screen on my first one.

The sound quality of my laptop has never been the same since I spilt a fine can of Carling over the speakers and being a avid gamer I just could not get into games or let them hold my attention for long enough without sound so something had to be done.... more
I had previously a Nikon L3 5 megapixels camera and I was VERY disappointed (please see my other review about this camera) so I gave it away. Then I did an extensive research about what 5 megapixels camera I should buy. Read a lot and checked a lot of... more
