Pros:
Lower Price, High Quality Photos, Good feature set, Has a viewfinder, Fast Shutter speed, Doubles as PC camera & basic video camera

Cons:
Delay in taking photo, red-eye photos, no audio on video, LCD line flicker

High quality photos with many quality options. Produces video as AVI files (good for editing) in two video sizes. Overall size big enough for adult hands. Good mix of basic menu features. PC camera option. Has a viewfinder (not just a LCD screen like some). Fast shutter speed of 1/6000 sec. (no blur on initial tests). Lower price than comparable 5 mega pixel cameras. Photos count down (shows remaining photos). 90 day warranty on parts and labor. In picture review mode, the pictures can be switched from tiny thumbnails to fill the full LCD screen by clicking the Display button (DISP), or you can use your digital zoom to zoom in even more. Also, the manual exposure setting is nice for sunny days.

The low price does bring some negatives. Initial appearance is a little generic with the words "Digital Camera" on the camera bag and camera back. Body construction is plastic. There is approx. a 2.5 sec. delay when the shutter button is clicked (Common digital camera problem), and boot-up delays when you turn on the camera. Initial test photos had red-eye on some. No audio on the video and video requires a good amount of lighting. Doesn't bother me, but note that the memory card slot is in the battery compartment. The LCD screen seems to have a white line flickering, even with the anti-flicker setting on. No optical zoom lens (Digital zoom by pressing up/down, but not in video mode). Smaller LCD display than most (1.5").
