Ian, Warrington

+ There are lots of impressive features packed into a really small camera such as the 'Best Shot' which has settings for most occasions - Portrait Photo, Night Time etc. and the video function on it's highest resolulution is DVD quality although it is memory hungry so a good size memory card is necessary

- The image sometimes looks a little blurred on the screen although the picture comes out fine when transfered to my computer

+ 16:9 wide angle images are fantastic quality and also the movie mode can be taken in widescreen. small and compact with all the features one needs.

- The only downside l can think of is that only black and sliver available , would love to have either orange or red colour. I have the black one and looks pretty slick.

+ Extremely easy to use and the photographic settings can be accessed and altered quickly and easily from the on-screen panel as well as the menu button. Images can also be adjusted afterwards, for example white balance, cropping and image size. Has a good solid feel and is a pleasure to own.

- On/Off switch very sensitive. Charges via a cradle, which does not worry me but might others.

+ The size and look of this camera are definitely the best points of this camera

- The actual image quality is not so good and for anyone who wants to personalise all their settings this is not the right camera for you. The pre set 'best shot' feature is useful for a happy snapper but not for a more delicate shooter.
