 its okay August 19, 2008
Suzanna Davis (Medfod,OR)
The picture quality is good but the lag time between pushing the button especially with the flash making a bright light while it gets ready for the shot destroys any spontaneous shots especially of my animals or child. It is easy to use and I did not have to do a lot of reading to get it working for me. My disappointment lies only in the inability to take spontaneous photos and maybe that is just the quality of a digital camera. Shop around if taking a surprise photo is of importance.

This is my first digital camera and my friend who is a professional photographer recommemded this one and I love it. Not simple to me but I am learning and it gets easier to operate.

It is almost as small as the Olympus XA2 August 14, 2008

I bought this camera after my hospital decided to go to a digital camera for wound documentation, after polaroid decided to quit making instant film for its cameras. The camera they decided to adopt was this one. I had my doubts, but after having used it, I really started to like it, and bought one for myself. It is compact, uses AA batteries, and has a supermacro feature. The only bad thing is that there is no flash, or I haven't figured out how to use the flash while doing supermacro. Without a tripod, and no flash, not all of the shots could be held still enough in supermacro for sharp shots. I finally figured out how to use a LED pen flashlight to provide enough light for faster shutters peeds in super macro handheld shots. The images are clear and sharp. From Amazon I took advantage of the 2 GB SD card for free. I have yet to fill one up. This is the camera that goes with me all of the time. A great camera for not so much dough for those of us that like macro shots.
Good overall camera August 14, 2008

I purchased this camera with my summer trips in mind. I picked it mainly because of the price - I'm not a real camera junkie. I found that on the whole it operates very well. The only problem I have is that it tends to get blurry in action shots, or if you zoom in too close. I also found that my sister, who has a Nikon camera, has pictures that are sharper and have a better quality. For the price, though, you can't get a better camera.
