Some mixed results, great features
"Please note that in the "cons area" I marked these because I had mixed results in photos. The picture quality is good and can be great, but in some cases it could be much better.

Disappointment
"I bought this camera for my wife to capture our newest grandchild. The time from pushing the button to the picture being taken is so long that we miss most good pictures. We have mostly back of head shots. The camera is too small for me to comfortably operate...." Read Full Review »

"I would recommend this camera to the average person who just wants to take good clear snapshots. The smile feature and the face frame feature are fun for a while but end up turned off most of the time. Low light situations are very grainy, I can't seem to get past that.

If the flash is off though, it is too dark. …" Read Full Review »
