Advantages: great images, reasonable price

Disadvantages: download time

I have had this camera now for around 6 months and i am very happy with my purchase. if anybody is looking to buy a digital camera, this should be the one to choose. it is supplied with a 4mb card which will store around 40 good images or 16 very good images or 20 seconds of moving pictures. cards with larger capacities are available for between £30 for a 4 mb to about £90 for a 32 mb which will store about 100 top quality images.There is a zoom lens which retains clarity at many distances and the supplied software allows you to zoom further once the images are downloaded onto your pc.
While the images are fantastic, it takes quite a while for all the photos to get onto your pc(about 15mins for 100 photos) but the quality once this is done makes up for it entirely.
the unit comes with a 1.5 inch colour lcd screen on the back so if you dont like the photo you can re-take it and delete the original.
For anyone who has not experienced digital photography, it is an incredible jump up from the old snap shot and the only cost involved after the initial purchase is the price of paper on which to print your photos.

n.b. a set of rechargeable batteries are a must if you buy this camera as it gets through regular batteries at a rate of knotts.

Overall this is the best digital camera i've used and should be seriously looked into as a potential purchase for any type of photographer.
