Thomas, Buxton

+ Build quality. Viewfinder and 2.5" LCD screen. Picture quality.

- Limited internal memory in view of the fact this is a 7.2 megapixel camera.
Also, for a camera of this specification and price, why does it not come with a case?

+ Size small for the pocket, easy to use

- Have to remove the battery to charge all the time. Opening plastic covers feel cheap and could break if your not careful

+ I wanted a compact with a viewfinder and therefore, in this respect the camera is good. Large, clear, LCD screen

- I expected picture quality to be better. My 3mp Pentax actually produced better quality pictures.

Tim, Cannock

+ 1. Focuses well even in dark conditions
2. Built in memory allows you to take pictures without the additional memory card
3. excelent large clear display
4. Buttons easy to use
5. Compact enough to fit in your pocket
6. Excellent close up macro Overall it's a great little camera

- Only minor gripe is the battery charge time, seems to take a few hours to fully charge other than this I've found nothing bad about it.

Hamish, Cambridge

+ A very good camera for either a beginner or more serious photographer.

- The computer connectivity to the pc cable is not that easy and on the base. This means that you have to be carful how you lay the camera when try download you pictures. Better off using a card reader.
