Handys in the Name.

Advantages: Good design - small, compact and light.

The first thing that attracted to me was it's size - it's quite small and easy to carry. It also had a nice touch screen which I think is a pretty cool feature - again in no way was this essential, but nice touches ...

Great camera, great value.

Advantages: Size and weight. Easy to use.
Disadvantages: Battery life on standard battery.

My brother held mine for the whole of my wedding ceremony and he was so impressed he has gone and got one for himslf. I was overjoyed with the results. The picture was excellent quality and the sound was very impressive and even recorded from the other ...
