Great Little Camera September 9, 2010
G. Stowers
I purchased this wonderful little camera over a month ago. It takes great, crisp photos and is easy to focus from macro to mountains. Not happy with the USB port or the shorter than my other Sony Cybershot battery life. One problem I just noticed is a shadow stripe thru the screen about an inch long by 1/8 inch wide. What has caused this? It doesn't effect the quality of the photos. Overall, I love the simplicity, easy to carry and picture quality.

I love everything about the camera. The only thing I miss is the macro. I had it on my Nikon and loved it for close up shots. Otherwise, great and crisp photos.
 Did not measure up. August 23, 2010

I researched this item before ordering. The test photos I tried did not come close to those online. I have used many digital point and shoot (Canon, Lumix, Olympus) and have a DSLR. Even though higher megapixels, this camera did not measure up to any of those. I returned it. The only advantage is its size.
 AWESOME camera!!! July 9, 2010

I just got this camera in the mail yesterday replacing my old Canon Powershot which was stolen. It was only 7mp, so I knew if I got a camera that was more than double the quality, I would be satisfied- Which i was!
The quality of the photos was amazing, and it was a really easy-to-use camera. I didn't really read the instructions, but i figured it out anyway! The screen is nice and big, and doesn't get dirty easily. If it does, the camera comes in this little paper thing that can be used to clean the LCD.
One thing is that if you don't like noisy cameras, watch out for this one because it makes a sound every time you push a button. Personally, I think it's really cool but that's just my opinion. You may be able to mute the sound, but I'm not sure yet.
The only problems I have with this camera is that first of all, I can't get open the A/V out plug thing, so that may be a problem for me. =) Another thing is that for the zoom, Amazon makes it sound like it's amazing because it's 4x OPTICAL zoom. However, it has no DIGITAL zoom, in other words, you can't zoom on the actual screen before you take a picture. It's still good, though.
The color is really nice; a little darker than the picture but it's pretty. I really like the different features this camera has, like being able to crop the images on the camera.
The video mode is great, because you can hear the sound when you're playing it on the camera- my old one didn't do that. The only problem with the video is that you can't zoom in/out while taking a video, and you have to make sure it's at the right place before you start taping.
Anyway, this is an awesome camera and takes absolutely beautiful pictures. It's really light and can easily fit into one's pocket. I would definitely recommend it!
Pros and Cons July 7, 2010

I picked this camera up for $80 at a national chain store, in their electronics center.
Pros:
The 14.1 MP takes very crisp and clear shots. The camera is quite thin, and slides right into a front or back jeans pocket (although I am sure you should be careful when doing this). They come in a variety of nice colors. The menus are simple to navigate. The battery life is above the average of my last few digital cameras. There are some cool options for the focus types. There is a beach focus that really makes the blues in the water pop. It works nicely for shots with a lot of blue open sky behind them as well. It picks up great detail, and is easy to use. With the right focus selected, it even does quiet well in low light conditions. I am very, very happy with the photos that I have taken with this camera.
Cons:
These little cameras are very proprietary. They do not use standard SD cards, so there is no quick camera to camera swapping of pics with friends that have different cameras. There is also no popping the card out and just plugging into your flat screen or into the computer at mom's house to do a quick view. They only use N type lithium rechargeable, so if you run out of batteries at the beach, there is no running into the gas station to grab spares. The USB port is even a nonstandard size. If you aren't careful where you put it, you will come home from vacation excited to see your new pics, only to be tearing the house apart looking for the specific cable. The on screen crop is also a bit complicated to figure out.
Wrap Up:
If you are responsible with the mini USB cable, do not mind carrying it with you when you may want to share pictures, and plan ahead where batteries and chargers are concerned, this is an awesome little camera. The quality of photos makes up for the inconveniences of not having more standard parts.
