Score 9.0/10+ Fantastic little camera with loads of functions.
- Don't forget to purchase a 2GB+ memory card and watch your pixel settings - it can eat up memory space.

Score 10.0/10+ I bought the camera as a gift for a 'techno-phobic' friend. Within minutes of it being unwrapped he was able to understand exactly how to operate it, producing perfect pictures time after time. An excellent result!!
