Advantages: 10x zoom, amazing lcd screen, HD movie Disadvantages: High ISO settings give blurring, No manual settings
From what i have used of the camera so far this camera will eat up any picture you want to take with it, I makes everything look so good with the massive 10x optical zoom.
The specifications are as follows:
9.1 Mega pixels
10x optical zoom
Leica lens
1/2.33" sensor
Sd card with SdHc capability (upto 32gb)
3" lcd screen with 460k dots
lithium ion rechargeable battery
28mm wide angle lens
HD movie capability
So far there is only one problem ... ...the ISO gets above 200 the images start to blur slightly but i don't know of many, if any compact cameras with 10x zoom will prevent the blurring from happening on higher ISO settings.
The build quality of the camera is superb it feels weighty which to me is a good sign that the camera actually has something decent inside of it :). But i will say that it is not as small as most compact cameras but when you think about having a lens with 10x optical ...

Advantages: large screen, excellent picture, easy to use Disadvantages: no view finder
I recently bought this camera from Amazon for around £150 and it probably has the best quality picture display I have seen on a similary priced digital camera. The picture quality is brilliant even when zoomed in ten times and the display is very sharp and bright on most settings.
There are many different settings for different scenes such as sport (which eliminates blurryness), night mode, snow, beach and many more, maybe about 15 in total. It ... ...if it came with a case, yet I have no scratches on it as yet. The battery, when fully charged, last for a long time. Overall, I would say this camera is very good value for money and has brilliant picture quality and display and is very simple to use and read on screen instructions as the screen is very big. ...

I treated myself to one of these cameras in the sales after Christmas. I was expecting a larger, SLR-sized camera, but was pleasantly surprised at how light and compact the camera is in reality. The quality of the lens is excellent, and good quality... more
A couple of weeks ago I was introduced to this tiny digital camera, now there have been plenty tiny digital cameras in the past but none have been all that good. This one however has an unbelievable amount of features for such a small piece of equipment. more
I bought this camera as a replacement for our "family" camera we have used my wife's old 35mm Cannon for taking holiday snaps and felt it was a good time to replace it with a digital. "We" wanted a camera with a good optical zoom, "I" wanted a camera to... more
I had been after a Digital SLR for some time, and when the opportunity arose to buy one I did just that. Well, that's not actually technically true. By rights this camera is not a digital SLR, but in fact a compact 'superzoom' camera, it looks like a... more
