Advantages: Incredible Clear Pictures, Great Design, Simple to Use Disadvantages: Slightly sluggish uploading pictures to PC
...week holiday. the software from Casio is not great and a little outdated. I found editing my pictures quite hard and the downloading speed can be slow. However I do tend to download about 100 at a time so its not too bad.
The movie feature doesnt have sound but is stil handy, I didnt find this a problem as I didnt buy the camera for this purpose. Its not a video camera and doesnt pretend to be. If its an important feature to you buy a video camera.

Advantages: Great quality at great price Disadvantages: Good quality pics take up too much memory
Excellent all round camera for it's cost. great quality pics, even with zoom.
Pictures take up too much memory tho, at 1.8mb each at full quality.... suggest you use the biggest MMC you can find (256mb).

easy to load to PC even for a novice! even presents them nicely for ...

(+) Ultra-compact dimensions, fun automatic tools, good performance for the asking price (-) Cluttered menu layout, camera buttons are scarce, specs are almost identical to the Samsung ES15
