Tony, Near town Point & shoot
- Good points:
-
Very easy to use without reference to the instruction book
Good clear sharp pictures.
Very good battery life before recharging needed. - Bad points:
-
Havent used it much yet really and dont have many bad points to report.
Not sure why it does not come with a card or carry bag to protect the rear screen as the cost of these would be minimal if provided with the camera

James, Kingussie Keen amateur
- Good points:
- Compact, lightweight though sturdy quality build, very clear image, reasonably easy to work out the general features .
- Bad points:
- Would have much preferred it to have a small hard copy of the Users Manual rather than having to download a number of A4 size pages which are not so easy to carry around.
