Awesome little camera at a great price.
I've only had this a couple days, but have already taken quite a few pics and videos with it so I think I can give a reasonably accurate review. Although the camera isn't perfect (at this price level, what do you expect, pay $1000 for a digital SLR if you want to try for absolute perfection), for what you pay it is awesome. First and most important, in my opinion the picture quality is really really great. I like my pictures to be very sharp and good color and for most pictures this camera delivers --- my benchmark of quality is my old HP 945 whose pictures I loved but it broke, and this camera's pics are as good as the ones I got from that one (read my review of the HP 945 if you're curious). Other cameras I've had or tried include the Casio EX-Z120 and Kodak C743. This camera blows away the C743 in all areas, and for such a small price difference (maybe $30-$50) I would just get this one. The picture quality of this one is definitely better than the Casio EX-Z120, but the Casio is a bit better low-light performer (it can go up to ISO 1600, whereas this one only goes to 800; the Casio also seems to focus a bit better in low light, but the focusing performance of this one in low light is definitely acceptable). So by the most important measure, picture quality, I love this camera and definitely recommend it. The 5X optical zoom is great too (and you can even use it while filming video!), a nice addition above the usual 3X zoom, although you'll need a steady hand or tripod at large zooms (no image stabilization in this camera). Some others have complained about the flash performance of this camera, e.g. that it isn't good, the pictures are dark or washed out, etc. I have found this to be somewhat true, but the key is to use the in-camera "Perfect Touch Technology" which corrects this very well I have found. Finally, the video quality is really good too: as I said, you can use optical zoom during video (although it gets out of focus for a brief instant while zooming before focusing well again), but also it stores videos in MPEG4 which is very space efficient (other cameras, e.g. the Casio EX-Z120, use Motion JPEG which is a real space hog), it is 30 frames per sec VGA (i.e. real-time motion, TV quality), and finally the low-light performance is pretty good (e.g. cheaper cameras such as the Kodak C743 are HORRIBLE in low light, almost completely dark and barely discernible, while this one is much better and nice); it is not as good as a dedicated camcorder, but if you are on a budget (i.e. don't want to purchase 2 separate products) and/or you value the convenience and space savings of just carrying one camera then this can probably work well as your video camera too. In sum, a great camera and especially so at its price. It would have been nice to have optical image stabilization, but that probably would have jacked the price up quite a bit and I can personally live without it. Highly recommended.
