Advantages: easy to use, light weight

Disadvantages: easy to blur pictures

I actually won this camera in a photography competition but at the time was wanting a compact camera so I didn't have to cart around my slr everywhere.

It looks great, very sleek, tiny but not too tiny for people with big hands like me! Very easy to use but this could be because I've only ever used Nikon cameras. The screen is easy to see and the menus are simple and easy to use. The zoom options are great and all in all it's a very nifty little camera. My only niggle is the blur I get on some of the pictures which aren't clear from the screen picture. I thought maybe this was because I was used to using a heavier slr but I've made a conscious effort to not shake and I still find for every 10 pictures I take 2 or 3 are blurred.

I have recently managed to get sand in the camera breaking the lens motor. I could pay to get this cleaned but instead I think I'm going to put the money towards finding myself a better model.

Summary: A good all rounder but not for me.
