Advantages: It's easy to use, very good image quality, and helped me learn all about the digital camera world

Disadvantages: The manual focus is horrible, lens feels a bit cheap

This S9600 was my first proper digital camera, I still own it but I moved up to better cameras, but only because I needed the extra zoom and closer macro, this camera did everything right and even a couple things better than my 4x more expensive new one, the noise is well under control, focus is very good (not manual) image quality and resolution was great, but it seems like it would choose low shutter speeds in daylight and make things too bright when left to think for itself, easily fixed with exposure compensation though.
A very good, easy to use camera and if you don't need the two extremes of true macro and really big zoom then it is perfect, and you don't even have to worry about lenses!
Good Points
It's easy to use, very good image quality, and helped me learn all about the digital camara world.
