Advantages: Very compact, fantastic wide angle.

Disadvantages: Noisy about ISO100.

First off, let me say I demand alot from my camera kit. My usual camera to shoot with is a Canon 5D or medium format film, so my standards are quite high.

This camera really surprised me. I was looking for something small to keep in my handbag for those unmissable shots and the odd night out, and this one really delivers.

To the casual user, the picture quality will be great. It will print fab big prints and has a really good low light facility so that you don't need the flash all the time. The flash is also very effective when it's just too dark to see!

For best quality shoot at no higher than ISO100 and shoot RAW format, although you'll need to be able to post process your shots if you do this. The downside is the "noise reduction" feature which tends to smooth pictures out and make them lack in detail.

All in all, good camera, easily a rival for the Canon G9.

Summary: Love it!
