Digital camera Review: A Fun Camera to have
Summary: 4 Stars

I bought this camera as a second one to compliment me DSLR, and it has proved to be very useful. It is very small and compact and can go anywhere you want. I took it down a water park slide, into the pool, on a roller coaster and it was great. I got shots I don't think I could have taken with any other camera. It has a boat load of automatic features and settings which as useful. It days great pictures in the daylight, ie low ISO pictures. Like many camera's this size as you increase the ISO the amount of digital noise increases. It is very noisy when used at higher ISO settings. But I bought this to use outdoors in the daytime so I am happy with that.

A Super Protect (SP) coating applied to the mineral crystal cover of the internal zoom lens helps repel water, grime and finger marks.
