Advantages: Looks attractive and easy to use

Disadvantages: Unreliable picture quality, doesnt adjust well to different lighting

Bought for ninety pounds its easy to admit that 8.2 mega pixels is good value for money, however, I have found it extremely difficult to take good quality pictures with this camera. Admittedly this is my first camera and I am no expert but almost half of the pictures that I have taken have come out blurry and it seems that I only get good quality pictures when I have the flash on and am in an environment that actually requires the flash function.
Too often I have tried to take a picture and become extremely frustrated due to my inability to take a good quality picture.

On the plus side the camera is extremely easy to use and looks reasonably stylish, the software that came with it is both simple and effective.
What I find most frustrating with the camera is the pictures that do come out well are of good quality I just wish it had better consistency.

To summarise I wouldn't recommend this camera to anyone as I believe buying a camera with less megapixels may still offer better value for money.

Summary: Would avoid buying this camera
