Advantages: Small, light, versatile, quality

Disadvantages: None that i can think of.

I am not a photographer and i admit i dont know much about cameras, but i am am pleased with this camera. I have taken it so many places, dropped it and all sorts but it is still taking rearly good quality pictures. I once dropped it out of a second floor window and it is still working as well as ever. I cant find a single fault with this camera, and its complete value for money. I had to try and make a good choice as i had a very limeted budget, and i believe that i did. I couldnt of asked for a better camera for my money, it has so many features and takes quality picture. I personaly upgeraded to an XD card with more memory.
