First time user, decent for the price

Author's Rating: 4/5 stars  

Pros: Easy to use, picture quality better than expected, decent software, good price, 13 shooting modes

Cons: Needs rechargeable batteries, buy a memory card (expected), occasional red-eye, slightly heavy for size

Bottom Line:
I recommend the camera to new digi-camera users. We used it for taking hospital newborn baby pictures and are satisfied with the results considering the price and 4.0 megapixels limitation. Read More
