Advantages: Lovely design

Disadvantages: Quite expensive

This really is an excellent camera. I've had it for 6 months now and so far it has not let me down in the slightest.
The picture quality is fantastic, there are many excellent functions, such as colours filters, red eye correction and face detection technology.

It is very compact and extremely slick looking, coming in chrome finish. It measures 86.0 x 54.0 x 20.4mm and weighs 132g so is small enough to carry in your pocket.

There is a 2.5 inch digital screen which is very clear and of ample size.

When set to 10 megapixels each photo takes up a lot of memory, however, you are able to select whether your pictures are 2,4,6, 8 or 10 megapixels, which means that you can save precious memory space for photo's which don't require such high resolution.

At £150 this camera is not cheap, but all in all it's a fantastic camera and ticks all the boxes:
- picture quality
- functionality
- looks
- size
- durability

Summary: Excellent camera. Ticks all the boxes
