2 stars Fuzzy 2010-08-30

Reviewer: C.M.77

I had 3mp and 8mp cameras that I feel took better pictures. Most of my problems were with indoor pictures coming out fuzzy and/or pixelated. There is an easy setting and even with using this function I still had poor picture quality. I know this has a 12.1 MP, but to me it is of no use if the pictures come out the way they did. I did read the manual and even with following the suggestions for taking picutres I still had this problem. HOWEVER, As far as taking "posed" shots in very good lighting the pictures came out GREAT, but for taking those pictures of activities, especially indoors (yes I did use flash), I have many poor images of great memories. I am definitely not a "technical" type person, but with owning two other digital cameras I didn't have this type of a problem. It seems like an easy to use camera, So I guess that is why I am so disappointed that I had this problem.

5 stars viewfinder 2010-08-30

Reviewer: Irvin Kues

Last of the compact cameras with a viewfinder. Image stabilizaton, advanced electronics, 2 aa batteries,and many options. A really great camera. Only negative , there is no user manual-only a cd. This presents a problem when you are travelling and need to check something.

4 stars Great little camera 2010-08-28

Reviewer: ceomom

Love this camera and I keep it in my bag at all times. It takes great photos for every day snapshots when a dslr is not convenient to carry. The only complaint I have is the lack of a Sports mode. The Children and Pets mode is the closest I can find and it does an alright job with kids. However, although I've gotten a few good sports shots with it, it's still on the slow side and not fast enough to catch some of the best action shots.

I really like this camera, however, I find it difficult to open and close the battery compartment.
