Disadvantages: Average and limited flash.

The sanyo Xacti E60 is the successor to the popular E6 - but the few additional functions make this a useful and desirable ultra compact camera to own ! As with the E6 - the 3 inch screen and 3 x konica minolta non-protruding optical lens are excellent ! The menu system is simple to navigate, it takes SD cards and the movie mode is great quality (if not a little greedy on memory !). The ultra fast touch sensitive focus shutter is clever and the ...
...improvements to this range of Sanyo cams. Picture quality still remains very good with clear images and really good colour reproduction. Lowlight performance is adequate with the limited flash .

In short, a camera worth owning ! ... Read review
