Advantages: takes great quality pictures and easy to use

Disadvantages: not so good in the dark and taking videos takes up a lot of memory

I usually find that cameras can tend to be under used in my opinion simply because of the increasing megapixels appearing of smartphones. Yet i really do find that this camera is a beauty.
Nicely covered in a smart black and finished off with little touches of camera genius you should be utterly over the moon if you were to recieve this camera as a present. (so why not give it to yourself instead of having to wait for someone to fork up their love for you).
I honestly dont feel anyone would be dissapointed with this camera; the 10.2 megapixels are all used brilliantly to create perfect shots for all to see. The buttons are all easy to use with the button to take the picture slightly indented for your finger to be cushioned nicely so you can be taking snaps all day long. The battery will also allow this as it can last a whole day and even longer when not in use. This means you dont have to worry about the battery running out (unless you have forgotton to charge it). The camera is very simple to use as you just click to take a picture. To change your picture type you just turn the wheel next to the screen to a different option from smart auto which makes sure your picture doesnt come out blury to portrait when taking pictures of people to day and night options and the feature which i love is the videocamera option. This shoots in full colour and sound to give a great long lasting memory. However, my one criticism would be that if you want to take quite a few pictures, this can take up a lot of memory and so it is recommended that you should buy a memory card for this. The camera is possibly not great when taking pictures far away and at night or somewhere dark as the pictures arent of great quality. I have experienced this when going to concerts and the quality of pictures can be dissapointing here so using the videocamera is great. For normal day usage, it really is a fantastic camera and has everything you would ever need. Importing onto the computer is extremely simple and quick. What i liked about the plug was that you have the same cable for plugging into the wall and pc but to plug into the wall, all you have to do it attach the usb end to the wall plug. This saves the hassle of using 2 seperate cables.
This is the best camera i have had and really is a treat to own.

Summary: The perfect camera for taking happy snaps
