This camera was my fisrt and it has lasted me for the last 10 years. It looks good in your hand and due to its silver finish, quite modern too. Though we are moving on into digital cameras, this is still a contender as it has lots of flash features and a very good zoom. Naturally for a camera of its stature takes very nice pictures indeed.
It automatically winds on, so you are never left wondering why it doesnt work! though this process can be a little slow so for certain occasions, this isnt very good.
The red eye reduction works, but u really need a tripod for it to be effective as it takes a long time to work and you often get left with blurred pictures.
It is by no means a pocket camera and tends to be quite chunky and weighty, but i quite like this as it is reassuringly solid in your hands.
