Advantages: Easy to use and great picture quality

Disadvantages: on the pricey side & non rechargable batteries

This camera is an excellent choice for the amateur but interested photographer. The camera is very easy to use and does take excellent photos. The lens is static therefore it is not necessary to purchase an individual one which is great as specified for a beginner. I was amazed at how clear and concise the photos were especially in macro mode.
The camera itself is easy to navigate, the menu and options are easy to understand and the settings are very easy to use for the appropriate moment.
On the negative side, there are a few points about the camera that dissapointed me. May I hasten to add that this was not in the performance of the camera but the fact that the camera runs on non rechargable batteries which can be costly unless you invest in rechargable AA batteries and charger yourslef plus I thought that the price was quite high considering that DSLR's can be purchased for less than the price asked on this item.
All in all an excellent camera though I would like the price to be reduced.

Summary: great camera if the price doesn't matter
