There are times to where it is handy to have a little point & shoot camera. Theme park, zoo, whatever it may be where you don't feel like lugging a SLR camera around your neck. This camera is nice light and thin. i can just put it in my pocket of my khaki shorts and is no more annoying that some keys. This camera is replacing a similar camera my Sony T1 which was pretty much the same but didn't have a touch screen. So I think that I'll have pretty much the same quirks. Weak flash but will take some great pics outdoors if you have your settings right. So far I am pleased with the camera although I can tell already it is going to have a poor battery performance....as I expected with having the large screen that had to be lit at all times.
I love the small compact size of the camera and the quality of pictures it produces. The flash is super bright though, so sometimes you have to turn the flash off to get a better photo. Also, sometimes the screen takes a moment to focus instead of point and shoot immediately. Overall, it is a good camera. I recommend buying the extended warranty through squaretrade, as I do all my electronic purchases.
It takes very good pictures, it is a good video camera too. It is the Best camera for traveling!! Why? because it fits in your pocket and you don't look like a tourist with a bulky camcorder and a large camera around your neck! I am very happy with it and I feel it will replace most of your camera needs for every day picture taking. But if you want to take special occassion pictures that will look superior, then this is not the camera for you. For that you need a much bigger bulkier camera. Don't get me wrong the quality is very good, but if you want to take WOW pictures with it, then it is not the Camera to buy. What would I do?? buy this camera for every day use and then purchase the $700+ camera for WOW pictures.
the camera takes good pictures and excellent video. but battery life is short. the zoom works very good in video mode and also in picture mode. touchscreen works nice, pictures look very clear, and easy to use. the smile shutter works excellent and anti-blur works fine. overall this camera is good but battery is poor.
It takes very nice pictures and is nice and slim. Im a little disappointed with the movie quality though. I dont know that id necessarily call it 720p. It looks good, but Ive seen 720p thats definitely better. Also the image blurs significantly when turning the camera too fast. I know this isnt a camcorder, but it ought to be able to have protection against that given the price tag. In the camera's defense, though, I havent yet played with the settings, so maybe theres settings I didnt know about to help this :-O (it DID say 720p on the screen though, so that setting was definitely correct).
