Can't recommend--fuzzy images

(Robin - 6/20/09)

I bought this after reading a number a great reviews. However, I can't say I've really gotten one clear, sharp photo from it. Perhaps there's some way to tweak it that I haven't figured out. or perhaps it's hit or miss with the sensor. Either way, I feel like I've gone back to my old 110 days (rememebr those flimsy little cameras?) Lots of features, but not worth it.
