I bought this camera for my teenage daughter. It is a perfect alternative to the really expensive cameras out there for the young adults that may not care for the more expensive ones as they should. It has all the features she could want for taking all the pictures of her friends and family. It has a good size screen and is compatible with XP and Windows programs for easy uploading of pictures with no additional programs needed. It does use batteries fast but rechargeable batteries have became so cheap now it is not even an issue.
The first time I bought one of these was for my son and daughter-in-law just before the birth of my grand daughter. She is now five. Since then, I have gotten two more for them after they were dropped or buried in the sand or taken into the water. I have gotten four (so far) for myself, three of which are working. The fourth was dropped. Needless to say, I love the camera. I now use the lithum batteries and have found that battery life is no longer a problem. These batteries seem to last forever. Memory chips are also really cheap with the larger ones holding 6-700 hi resolution photos. The chips can be inserted directly into my computer to transfer the photos. Everything from extreme closeups to flash is simply a joy. I suspect my next several cameras will be this model.
i have read a few bad reviews about this camera but just not seeing it. I'am no expert but i am liking this camera,easy to use and takes a good pic. Like my other digital camera battery life is short. have to use a good nickel/metal rechargable battey for sure.
I got this camera as a gift and though it only lasted two years I used it ALOT! Practically everyday. Easy to use and took a good quality picture. The only thing I didn't like was it ate batteries very fast!
I've used this camera since highschool and it works great. It's not the best for taking macros, since you have to be like 4 or 5 inches away. Cool effects like black and white, sepia and others. All in all, this is a good camera!
