Advantages: Looks Good, Good Storage, Data Transfers, Expandable Memory

Disadvantages: Zoom, Picture Quality if not on highest

I picked up this camera in Summer 06 so that I could take pictures of my Summer. I bought this camera for £60, so I wasn't expecting brilliant pictures and perfect zoom, but I was expecting more than what I got.

The camera is good looking and has a very ergonomic feel to it despite being a very small camera. You can store many pictures on this camera and you can expand the memory as there is a SD card slot. There is no software needed to transfer pictures to your PC from the camera, there is a USB cable supplied so that is all very easy.
The camera says that it has a 4x digital zoom, but I gave up using this as it just made all the pictures 4x blurrrier without zooming in at all. The picture quality on the highest setting is very good, but if you put it on the lower settings to save storage space, the quality is awful at best.

The one plus side of this camera is that it has been put to good use in that I have taken many people's passport picture with it and the quality is excellent. When I was at a Test match I went up to some players and said "smile" and I took some fantastic pictures.
In conclusion, do not buy this camera if you want to take pictures of views, but if you want a camera to take snaps of people at parties, the this camera is perfectly fine.

Summary: Not bad for a cheap camera, but you get what you pay for.
