Advantages: Easy to use, suprisingly good quality considering specifications

Disadvantages: Slow startup / reload between takes

I've had this camera for a good two years now, and while I sometimes feel pressured to upgrade, I know that I will be using this camera until it falls apart! The quality of picture is impressive for only 4mp and colour enough for a casual shooter, such as myself. Small enough to fit in your pocket and durable enough for rough and tumble (I've taken it to many shows and it hasn't seen a scratch yet.) The menus are easy to navigate, and the menu wheel / buttons self-explanitory. There is also an option to choose preset modes catered to various scenarios (beach, snow, indoor party, fireworks etc), and they do work well. The only negative thing I have encountered with this camera is the time it takes to 'load' between takes, especially in the dark...it is not one to rely on to capture that 'one and only' moment.

Summary: Perfect for a casual snapper with no ulterior motive!
