I bought this camera just over a year ago for £89 and its probably been the best money i have spent on a camera it takes excellent photo's although the battery life isnt the best i have seen.
Daytime photo's are very clear and absorb the colour of your shot very well if the camera is going to be used for taking scenery shots then this camera won't dissapoint. If you are more interested in taking photo's of moving objects then this camera is perfect as the built in image stabalizer works wonders and stops all the nasty blurr and distortion that can be seen with other camera's Night time shots come out nice and sharp and still have very good colour saturation and have a good white balance aswell .
The photos you have taken are easily accesible you simply turn the mode selector until you get to the play mode where you can view your photo's and short video clips on the bright 2"inch lcd screen either from the memory card or the built memory ,but you must remove the memory card first inorder to access the camera memory as there is no other way to get to them which i thought was very good.
The camera's ZOOM is excellent as it has a 4x optical zoom which actually zooms in on the image instead of just making the image bigger like digital zoom does, if the the 4x optical zooom isnt enough there is also a 3x digital zoom that can be activated via the the very easy to navigate menu that can be accesed by simply pressing the menu buttons, this also allows you to play around with the shutter speed the white balance and the picture size and quality etc
When you need to upload you photo's on to your laptop or pc you simply plug it into the usb port with the usb cable that is supplied but that's not it this camera also allows you to plug the camera into a tv that has an s-video jack using the supplied camera to S-video cable that is also supplied with the camera ,you can view the images and your video clips on your tv the only down side to this is the camera does not record sound so all the video' shots taken will be silent when you come to watch them.
So far this camera has been very reliable and it is pretty good durabilty wise as it has been dropped twice and the only damage to the camera was cosmetic and nothing inside it broke other than that this camera has given me no problems what so ever.
