Reviewer: Wayne Alexander, Jacksonville, FL USA
I was looking for a digital camera to take with me on my trip to Australia. Being a trip of a lifetime, I wanted to make sure I returned with amazing pictures and video that helped me remember and share my experience. I shopped online and in stores comparing prices and brands. This camera provides easy use with great results at an affordable price. There are many functions to choose from allowing for optimal performance. It is compact and easy to become accustomed with. The larger lcd screen was helpful when capturing and reviewing pictures. The video function picks up sound well, but you cannot zoom while filming. The settings can be manually configured to be adjusted to your preferences, but there is also a function for easy shooting. Battery life was sustainable and allowed for full days of picture taking. Viewing pictures as a slide show on the camera is great, because it plays music along with it, and you can add your own music to add a personal touch. I was able to capture images quickly with the fast response time of the shutter. Overall, I was completely satisfied with this product and would recommend it to someone shopping for a decent digital camera, but isn't quite ready for a SLR. The pictures turned out great!
Good choice

Reviewer: Sandra Wildermuth,
I was really nervous about buying the right camera and i have to say im pretty impressed with this one. I'm not a photographer, just an everyday mom who likes to take those random pics. I wanted something light weight, quick to take the pic, long bettery, lots of storage, and enough options to do different things but not so confusing that i never use them. This deffinatley fits the bill.
good-bye Kodak

This camera is great, the only complaint is it's zoom is limited. It takes great pix and the software that comes with it has a really creepy facial recognition function. A little weird, but pretty neat for finding pix of people.
