I got this camera as a replacement to the awful Kodak which in my opinion died for no good reason! The phone has a lot to offer with 10.2 mega pixel photos, various scene modes, smile capture, flash/red eye, photo help, extended video capture with sound and the option to edit your photos whilst they are still on the camera.
The on camera editing software enables you to rotate the picture, resize, change the photo style with options such as calm, cool or sepia, and the option to adjust the image with face retouch, red eye remover, brightness, contrast and saturation adjuster.
You can also put all your photos into a slideshow which you can edit to include music, have a intertval or an effect. You can also zoom in quite far to your subject with around 4x optical zoom.
The scene modes on offer are varied and add a intresting tone to your picture. These include beauty shot, self potrait, text, fireworks etc.
The only negative feature of this camera is the fact that it runs on batteries. This means that you are always going to be spending out money on new batteries for it depending on how many pictures you can take and this can sometimes cost quite a lot. I also wouldn't recommend buying cheap batteries as they don't last two seconds in a camera like this! I recommend using Duracell batteries as they last a reasonable amount of time for picture taking. You can also get offers for two for one in most supermarkets.
The camrea is also very durable as it got chucked on the floor a lot whilst i was on holiday (accidentally) and it survived!
You can choose to take pictures at 10, 9, 7, 5, 3 or 1mp. However if you choose the 10mp option you will find that you probably wont be able to take many photos depending on the size of your memory card. I find that 7mp is adequate enough.
I would definitely recommend this camera as it is at a good price with lots of features.
