Beyond warranty, and the lens got stuck, at the "on" position. For the repair price? To me? It wasn't worth repairs.
Other than that? Easy camera to operate. Downloading to a PC, is effortless. Good pictures, too!


The only con is it doesn't come with a rear lens cap so I can't keep it mated to my lens because I don't have a spare cap.


I have owned this camera since spring 2008. I mainly wanted a camera with image stabilizer with decent zoom. I mainly use it for everyday pics and for concert settings. I needed something that does well in lowlight settings. With flash I'd say 80% of the pics are very clear in a lowlight setting. Without flash I'd say it drops down to about 60%.
The video is decent. There is some noise when taking video at such a place as a concert. Especially when watching on the camera itself. On a computer the video sounds much better and the picture quality is pretty clear. But don't try zooming while shooting the video. It will blur the picture. Also I find sometimes the video will blur while taking even not zooming. It's really a 50/50 shot.
The zoom is pretty good. I can be about halfway back in a concert crowd in a small venue and still get good pics. But don't try going beyond the 4x zoom into digital. It will blur the farther off the 4x you go.
I love the big LCD screen, definitely a huge plus.
Love the AA battery. I hate non standard batteries. I've had friends who their cameras have run out of battery life in the middle of a concert. So replaceable batteries are a must. I guess it really doesn't have good battery life. I can't give an estimate but I probably had to change the batteries at least once during a concert (which includes taking pictures earlier in the day as it's usually a road trip to the show). But it never really bothered me. I just carried a couple extra spares.
I can't comment on the different settings, as I only ever used auto and video modes. They worked well enough for me.
The flash will take a minute to recharge between pics. This can be annoying, especially at a concert (or I would assume when trying to capture children). You have to hold the flash down for a couple seconds before it takes the pic. Between pics also takes a couple seconds. The screen will go black until it's ready for the next pic.
The camera is a nice size. Not huge and bulky, but not very small either. For me it's a perfect size. I will miss this camera as it's served it's purpose quite well for my average uses.
A couple problems I've had. I'd say a little over 2 years or so after I bought it the battery compartment wouldn't shut all the way. I had to put a hairband around it to keep the battery compartment closed. But it still didn't close completely, resulting in a low battery warning all the time. Finally, my camera has hit its end. It will no longer even stay on for more than a couple minutes. Even with fully charged batteries. and just about a week ago my flash stopped working.
I must admit I am hard on cameras. This one has been in my purse, in my pocket at shows, has been dropped, etc. So for the abuse it has taken I think it's lasted a good length of time.
Honestly for the price, I wouldn't buy it. I got mine for $160 four years ago at a local retail store. It was on sale at the time and was originally $250. I can't believe how much the price is now for such an old model. I really wouldn't spend the money and buying a used one would be just as bad, as with my experience the more it's used the less it'll last and you'll end up having to buy another camera a year or 2 later.
If you can find it new for no more than $180 then I'd say that's a decent deal. But when I saw over $400 here I was flabbergasted.
[...]. I never review stuff and I really put thought into this to help others.










I'd accidentally given mine away a couple months ago. Went online to see the price was now $699! Then found a used one through Amazon in perfect shape for $100! In my pocket it goes!
