Great Camera

I have enjoyed using this camera, the interface with the multiple buttons around the screen makes changing the settings a breeze. It does a pretty good job cleaning up the picture when you use the doubler as well and I think it looks pretty cool.

If your worried about it being durable, don't be. I work as an engineer at a steel mill and I use it to document projects. I've dropped it a couple times from waist height, covered it in metal dust, and overall have generally used it in hot, sweaty, and dirty conditions. I've even had some water splashed on it. Sure it may have a couple small scratches on the frame, but that's to be expected. The display on the back is even fine. The only issues I have had is that the lens guard wouldn't open all the way once after I dropped with the lens was extended. However, it only took a few "on-off" cycles and then it opened perfectly fine. Also, the flip up flash seems a little flimsy for my liking, but I haven't really had a problem with it.

I would have so say the best feature is that it is rechargeable just like an iPod. You can plug it into the computer to charge it, or plug the same cord into the USB-to-AC Power adapter that it comes with. It's worth buying just so you don't have to buy batteries every other time you use it. I've even used it in a pinch as a portable hard drive to transport files since it appears as one on your computer when not using the provided software.

I was initially looking for a camera with a 10x zoom, but the 10.1 megapixels make up for what the 3x zoom lacks (you really don't need more than 7 MP otherwise). As for the shake reduction, I've taken it on a very fast roller coaster, although I'd advise not to, and ended up with some surprisingly clear pictures.

The psudo-touch screen buttons along the sides of the display is a pretty sexy feature. I'll admit though, even for a engineer, it took me a while of tinkering before I got the hang of navigating the controls. On the upside, they allow for a larger screen on a smaller camera.

All in all, it's a really great camera for the price. I've used it in many different environments for many different types of pictures, and I haven't even used half of the features that it provides. For the price, you can't beat the value.

Generally happy, but with some concern.

Picture quality is very good, but not excellent. I don't like the pop-up flash. When someone else uses the camera, they tend to think it can be opened manually -- a logical conclusion. Fortunately, I've been able to give them advanced warning. If that isn't possible in the future, someone may innocently break the camera by opening the flash. Also, dust seems to be collecting under the LCD cover. That would be OK, if there were a way the user could clean it out.
