+ I love the design of the camera - its small and lightweight, and really easy to use, plus the metal casing makes is robust. The features are really good too - there are loads of different shooting settings. I really like the optional anti-blur setting - very handy. Its completely idiot proof (the delete button is a dustbin!) and the zoom range is pretty good too (obviously image quality goes a little when you use the digital zoom, but it's still very good). The package with the memory card and case was excellent value - the 1GB memory card will hold at least 500 photos, and the case is very smart. Overall I'm really happy with my camera and frequently recommend it to my friends... I'm taking it to South Africa next week, so I guess that'll be the real test...

- The night-time setting is a little hard to use - you have to keep your hands really steady so it doesn't blur

Keith, Didcot

+ I needed a camera that was straight forward to use and not full of extras. It needed to be as automatic as possible and produce very good quality photographs and this fitted the job for me.

+ Ease of use to someone not technicaly minded. Very good clear images, and natural shades.
It is extremely neat to carry about. In fact I could not wish for a better camera!!

- The only difficulties I have had to date are due to my ignorance ie; transfering individual shots to Conputer.
