Awesome Camera!!

This is a great all-around camera. The high megapixels make for perfectly clear pictures and it can be made almost completely manual with ISO controls, light controls, etc. The only complaint I might have against it is that it doesn't make great sunset pictures. It may just be that I have yet to find the correct setting for them, but the depth and colors of the light aren't quite what my old camera used to have. Other than that, it is really easy to use and a very high-end camera for its price. It also is super small and can fit in a pocket if you're looking to take it everywhere (which I do). The shutter speed is instantaneous if you're not using the flash and you can take consecutive pictures really easily (great for sports). The screen is huge and makes for great viewing of pictures without a computer. Battery life is pretty extensive, I bought an extra that I carry with me everywhere because I do a lot of backpacking and camping, but so far have yet to completely run out of power. I would recommend getting a 1 gB card because if you want the pictures at top resolution, they take up quite a bit of space (1 gB holds about 600 pictures). This camera really can't be beat, it has all the necessary features and takes amazing pictures.
