I want a camera to take on holiday

I want a camera to take on holiday to take snaps of my little girl playing etc. The last camera I had took blurry pictures every time she moved a little, and even when people posed for a shot. Is the picture quality good on this camera?

hello kelly, yes i did purchase a s210 from costco. i know if it didn't work out i had 90 days to return, no questions asked.
i've been taking lots of pics and they are all very good from the lowest quality setting to the highest.
it certainly is the smallest camera i've used, but very well made, it has a good feel to the camera and buttons.
the menu is very easy to operate. the set up menu is very easy.
since the camera is so small i've been using a thin strap around my neck so i don't drop the camera. however the strap also helps to stabilize the camera also.
this is crazy but what i don't like about the s210 is the monitor on back. the size is large enough but the glass is indented, not even with the rest of the camera body........so it's almost impossible to clean the screen completely. that's my only problem, but that's what i will return it for. been looking at a panasonic tz4 that is about $40 more expensive with large optical zoom AND a monitor screen with no corners to collect dust, etc.
hopes this helps

i have the camera 60 days and i am worried about it. i have been reading reviews that are not so good about image quality. to answer your question, the battery has a shorter life than other digital cameras i have owned before.
