Fast shooting, easy to use, minimal red eye, great zoom feature that automatically detects peoples faces and will zoom in on them before/after the picture is taken - great to see if people are blinking!!

Can't think of any!

I especially like the large viewing area. Have had a few images printed and the quality was excellent. Need to find out more about the camera but family illness has meant more pressing tasks!!

On receiving the package the memory card was missing.

Small and light, with good screen.

Keep getting lense error and it turns itself on easily when in bag.

Great fun to use. 90% pics come out spot on. Only very occasionally gets exposure wrong indoors with flash - but I've more expensive cameras that don't get indoors in low light right every time. Battery lasts for ages - even with lots of flash. Built...

They're not really "bad" as you know it can't zoom when recording video. Occasionally (maybe one in ten if that) gets low light exposure wrong - but so seldom you just take another pic after you've reviewed it and it'll be fine. I don't think any...

A great little camera for just snapping the grand kids, easy to use, the video is great for catching those special moments at the push of a button.
