Good camera with a few issues

I've had this camera for 2 years now. Most importantly, it takes high quality pictures which many people comment on. It has a large viewscreen and is sturdy. However, there are a few cons:
-in low light conditions, the pictures are blurry and not very good quality at all
-flash response time is very slow
-start up time is slow
-its a bit bulky
-battery life is an issue
-when viewing pictures the information stays on the screen
-not alot of options to play around with, but your basic point and shoot
-no viewfinder

I'm happy with the quality of pictures it has given me for a point and shoot. I bought it mainly for the 5x zoom which many other models do not have.
