if you want to treat a camera like an egg...

I've owned 3 models of this camera because i loved the swivel lens feature. the 1st camera was replaced 4 TIMES under warranty & twice more with an independent repair shop. The 2nd one THREE TIMES. The last 1 ONCE before it was sold to a willing victim. All due to a "Lens Error", which never happened for the same reason twice.These cameras have taken great pictures in their time & I have gotten great, though brief, use from them They have a powerful flash in low lighting but can get quite grainy with no flash. I wish I could give it a better review but the fact that it is so fragile has become a punchline to a very bad joke. I was told at the last repair to treat it like an egg. Who packs eggs on vacation? Buy at your own risk!
