Advantages: small, easy to use.

Disadvantages: no flash, shaky on zoom

I bought this camera second hand from ebay and took it on holiday. It is very small so fits well into a pocket although I often forgot to close the lens cap which has to be done manually. The screen is clear and bright but I found the lack of a flash to be a problem in some dim settings. The picture quality can be put on 3 settings depending on how much space you want to save on the drive but I put in a 16gb sdhc card which gives me about 3.5 hours on highest resolution. The finished version is a good movie but I found that when you zoom in it gets very shaky. It comes with youtube software which I've not tried yet but I can tell you that you can't upload to youtube without it because I've tried. For the price this is a good little camera but I think that a decent mobile phone would do the same job and it some cases do it better.

Summary: Good for the price.
