Very good for the money

I bought this from at a local shop after checking the reviews here.

1. The picture quality is very good, colors are excellent.
2. There is no pause when you press the button which is essential
3. It copes well with lighting too, the flash is well synchronized ( a toruble I have had with my last two cameras).
4. Zoom is as advertised.

Unfortunately it slipped out of my pocket and I stood on it. Its really scraped up bad now, the lens cover is smashed but it still works (for now) and takes good pictures.

So I have to recommend it though I may end up in the market again.
