Great Camera!

First unit, worked for one trip, then just stopped powering on. Second unit, seems to be working well. Great camera otherwise. Takes pictures fast, with a fast SD card. Good features, nice screen, good battery life. I would give it perfect marks, but the first one I had for a week died.

Fast shutter

In my opinion fastest shutter so far in a compact ( I hate lag!) and great picture quality. Maybe a little heavy but it seems bulletproof. battery lasts a very long time. Excellent value and very intuitive. The compass is cool but the GPS is a bit of a stretch. Overall a 9.5!

Best all around camera!!

this camera ROCKS! The quality is as good as my digital SLR. Best part is that I no longer have to worry about the weather. Can't wait to see how well it works with baseball season. Oh and wait, the video is awesome as well. It's nice to be able to switch effortlessly between still & video modes with one touch.

Exellent All Weather P&S Camera

I needed a camera to take out in the weather that was smaller than my Nikon SLR cameras and did not require a waterproof cover as my SLRs do. I am a pro shooter and would prefer more manual settings, and wider lens, but this on does an excellent job and has all the selections to help smeone lookng for a point and shoot cam that will make most of the decisions for you. This camera meets my expectations for image quality and accurate exposure that the manufacturer is know for. It appears to be fairly rugged and waterproof as well. Very easy to use and has very minimal shutter lag, it compares to consumer level SLRs for shutter lag. Automatic white balance is much more accurate than other cams I have tried (I usually set manual white balance on my SLRs unless I am outdoors or shooting with on camera flash). This cams auto white balance appears to be very close in all light conditions I have tested so far. Video is very good as well.
