This camera has it's OWN class!

(William Turner - 12/27/06)

A camera truely in a class of it's own, especially at the price tag avaliable. Not only is it's image quality comparable to cameras hundreds of dollars more, but the fact that it has the full manual controls you'd expect from an 800 dollar camera is unbelievable. With 6x optical zoom, and the ability to add an additional telephoto lens making it an ultra zoom, you simply cannot find a camera of similar size and zoom ability. Add to that the image stabilized lens, and you suddenly have a camera that can take photos of the quality that normally would require a tripod. Now that's unbelievable, I mean if it didn't have the manual controls, it would be so so, but this is truely a camera that can be exploited for the best pictures around (at this price range). I totally recommend reading the review at dcresource.com. Look at their sample photos, and then look at the same subjects with other cameras. This baby speaks for itself!
