Size matters! Smaller is better!

Author's Rating:

Pros: Smallest and lightest digital camera ever.

Cons: Manual is not easy to use. Shutter speed too slow.

The Bottom Line: 
I recommend this to people who are not professionals, but who enjoy photography and digital photography. Size, weight and portability are the best of any camera I have seen.

Essentially a camera is just a lens and some material to record the image. This camera shows how advanced our technology has come in over 100 years of photographic innovations.

When I saw this camera in a large camera shop 7 months ago, the salesman said "This is the smallest and best digital camera I have here in the shop." Well, I am not certain it is the best in his store, but it certainly is the smallest. I already had a digital camera for about 2 years, but it is bulky and it weighs too much. This camera can fit in my pocket and is very easy to carry without a special bag to hold it.

I have been into photography for over 30 years and I am impressed with this camera. This camera impresses my friends when I pull it out to take a picture. The 3 megapixels is more than enough for my purposes.

The lag in the snapping of the picture is the only thing I have to be critical about. You have to hold the camera steady for several seconds, or else the pic will be blurred. A faster shutter speed and ability to adjust that speed would be a big improvement.

The memory chip is available in CostCo and is relatively cheap. Downloading the pics into my computer is easy.

There are so many features, I still haven't read about all of them in the manual. Personally I don't need all of the features like sound and motion picture recording.
