Review: It's Very Good

I purchased this for $299 and feel like its worth the price. I experimented different settings in the manual mode and I got very good pictures with it. It has good focal length settings starting from f/2.4 to f/8.0 and a variable shutter speed from 1/1600 of a sec to more than 5 sec. Also the variable ISO settings gives you flexibility in getting good pictures under different lighting conditions... I have not yet tried the video mode in this and so no comment on that front. Also the "Stitch pictures" mode along with the software provided in the cd help you make good pictures which cannot be taken in one shot. I like that feature as well. Overall, it is a very good camera and I recommend it.

Review: Dead

I have this camera for about 6 months, it started out great, great pictures. Went to NY took over 2000 pictures and than the camera just went dead. nothing works, tried new batteries, everything. camera went back to best buy and i am lucky i got an extended warr. for four years, have not got it back yet, so I do not know what is wrong with it. But if you buy one get an ext. warr.... Will follow up when camera returns to me repaired or replaced with a new onw.... The pictures where great they all came out, I also have a 4GB extreme 3 card with it. [↑]

Review: Nice Camera

The camera takes great photos when using the AUTO setting. Some of the instructions for using other setting aren't as clear as they should be. After 3 weeks I still haven't figured out how to get it in the super close macro setting. Detail is great with the 8 MPs, zoom is really nice too. But, of course when you start getting up over 20X you really do need a tripod. I have found that the image stabilizer is great for me as I am getting older and not quite as steady as I used to be. All in all it is a great camera that should serve me well, just a little larger than what I wanted to be carrying around on trips though. [↑]

Review: Great Camera

It's a great camera for someone who wants a little more than a pocket size camera. It has a lot of features which at the beginning was a little overwhelming but it has a manual which is easy to follow. If you don't want to bother with all the settings the auto mode is very intuitive and helps to take a great photos first time you use it. My favorite option is the ability to extent exposure up to 15 sec which makes an awesome night picture.
The other great thing is the ability to record movies with an impressive quality for a photo camera. Just have a 2 gb sd card. [↑]
