I received this camera for my birthday and was expecting it to be a real upgrade to the previous Sony camera which I owned, especially with canon being one of the 'big guns' of the digital photography industry. However, I wasn't as pleased as I should have been with the quality of camera which I received, don't get me wrong, there was nothing explicitly wrong with the camera - its just it wasn't any better than my old one and I am sure you would all agree that at nearly £200 - this camera is one a 'cheap one.'

One of the real strengths of the camera is its zooming capacity, far superior to many of the other cameras which I have had experience of. It did make the camera especially helpful for taking pictures of wildlife when on holiday as you can take a stunning photo from quite a distance away. I also like the size of the camera, it can be difficult to transport around something so solid as a Nikon and the compact aspect made it perfect for taking abroad, tucked away in the hand luggage.

All in all there have been no problems with the camera, but, I am just confident that with a good 'look around,' a camera of the same spec can be found for a cheaper price.
