I first had this camera as a present for my birthday around 2 years ago, It has survived with me though holidays, its taken a trip into a sink and survived and has fallen on the floor a good few times and has survived. I think only good things can be said about such a cheap long lasting camera.

*Price*
You can pick these up for around £50 - £70 now, which is an amazing price for something that has lasted me so long, the box includes a USB cable and everything you will need! With such a large memory alone it will be okay to wait a while to order an SD card!

*Look*
The camera is fairly chunky compared to more recent designs but is still a compact camera, the size just fits in one of my handbags pockets along with a case to keep it safe, the case (after all my mishaps) is still pretty much scratch free (surprisingly) and the silver colour of the camera never really dates so It still looks like a camera you would pick up now and still up-to-date style.

*Functions*
The battery life lasts absolutely ages and will warn you in a good time to change batteries to avoid situations without it.
The camera has separate functions settings for everything (Including, flowers, sport, beach, landscape and a large amount of night settings) So the camera produces amazing pictures all times of day and night and in every situation. The flash can turn on and off and both pictures still have an amazing quality, the video camera function is my favourite, the built in microphone gives a good sound (sometimes shaky) but this is where the disadvantage of this camera kicked in, the video camera seems to cut off too much, even if there is sufficient memory.

*Ease of use*
The camera has functions that makes it easy to review, delete and edit your pictures on the camera itself, the SD card can easily pop in to a laptop card reader to transfer on the photos and the usb cable makes it easy to drag and share photos. Overall the ease of use gets 5 stars because everyone can use this camera.

*Picture Quality*
This is no camera for a professional obviously, but the 10 mega pixal image and the light and dark functions means every picture is of a great quality for memories and look good when they are printed.

Overal I would recommend this camera to anybody, its compact, survives wear and tear and still up-to-date and will last you ages!
