This camera is an excellent value for money. I got mine for USD196
from circuit city. Following are the adv and disadv to consider:
Adv
-Great Price for the camera in this category.
-6x zoom (this is the only small camera in its category with 6x zoom)
-Image stabilization
-Runs on two AA cells, you can use rechargeable NiMH cells, Oxyride or regular alkaline
-Solid make and finish
-Good speed and continuous mode shooting
-Excellent color and quality of images
-Good picturees in low light.
-Direct video out(comes with cable) can be hooked to TV.
DisAdv
-Lacks 640x480 + video mode
-Not a super compact camera for those looking to buy one
-Some delay between pictures when flash is turned on
-High Speed USB 2 would have been a nice feature
Overall for the price and features it comes with, its a really good camera in its category.
