Summary: Best Digital Camera I have ever owned
Review: This is a great digital camera. It's small, it's compact, it's versatile, and it's lightweight.

I bought it because out of all the camera's I looked at it, was by far the easiest to use because as much as I like gadgetry I'm not into Rocket Science when it comes to reading instruction booklets!

The camera has a great swivel viewer that can be locked into place or swung to a 180 degrees, depending on how you like to take your photos.

The menu is easy to use, in bright good quality colour and you can even make little videos with it though there is no sound.

Another area that is a must for me is the flash card, I know some people swear by direct download from camera to PC but for some reason I find downloading off a card much easier.

The picture quality is great, at the highest resolution you can only get about seven or eight pictures 16mb flash card, but if you downgrade then this doubles, even triples, depends if you want photo quality prints.

I took some photos at the 2004 Brighton PRIDE parade, not many as I wanted to test the camera out and I was not disappointed. The photos were amazing, absolutely crystal clear; I was more than well impressed I can tell you.

Playing around with this camera is the best way to find out what it can do, it's not over complex though I suspect you can do many complex things with it if you want!

In a nutshell it is easy to use, easy to hold, easy to download photos, in fact it is a camera that can be used by both novice and expert alike.

5 out of 5 for this little snapper of a camera.
