  I have four digital cameras and this is the one that I use most. The pictures are sharp and colors are true. There are enough standard features for the amateur photograher to get great pictures. There is even an in-camera guide for those who want to know how to improve their shooting experience. Not too shabby for an affordable ultra compact camera.

  • Good: compact, easy to use, loaded with features at an afforable price
  • Bad: slow cycling time at highest quality settings

  Have been using this camera since early 2007 and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone.
  
  When full quality is set, it takes AGES to load. It can be awkward if people in the photo taken wish to look back at it and they need to wait.
  
  Also, I have realised the battery life isn't too good either. I went to a carnival with my friends the other day and the battery died out during the day when we haven't even taken much at all. By night, we needed to use our phones.
  
  This camera on the other hand can provide good quality photos but ONLY in natural lighting. It's indoor quality can be quite low.

  • Good: Reasonable price, slim and modern design, large screen
  • Bad: Poor battery life, lack of lighting control, slow

  Very Very Very bad picture quality, the images are vague and not clear. slow using

  • Good: small, compact, various options
  • Bad: the images turn out to be very unclear and of bad quality. this is, in my opnion, the most important feature of a camera!!

  Biggest drawback with this camera is the lack of a viewfinder. It is sometimes very difficult to see the object on the screen with the result that you have to guess. Very slow when going from one shot in memory to the next.

  • Good: Relatively cheap. Very small. Large screen. Acceptable picture quality. Battery lasts a long time.
  • Bad: no viewfinder.

  This is a great little camera at a very low price ($114 at WalMart). We already had the memory card. We have no problem getting great shots with this camera, especially since it has image stabilization or "anti-blur". Colors are clean and sharp both inside and out, flash and without flash. This is a quality camera that's easy to use, attractive, works very well, and is small enough I can keep it in a clip-on cell phone case.

  • Good: See everything above.
  • Bad: Only gave it a 9 out of 10 because nothing's perfect. But this little camera is very close.

  Took it back to the store

  • Good: Fairly easy to use
  • Bad: Picture quality is probably the worst I've seen.
    xD card is senseless and hard to find in a small size.
    Bundled software is poor.
