Back to the days when cameras were about taking pictures (Will Robertson - 11/15/08)

Here is a camera that you can hand off to a kid, your grandmother, or possibly a well trained chimp. Set the mode to "Sports" if you want no noticeable shutter lag and quick autofocus. Sit back, and, for the first time you will see pictures of yourself. Imagine that ... pictures with YOU in them, because of the no-fuss ways of the s52c. Before you get any older, get one of these nifty things. Keep your D80 for yourself.
And if this weren't easy enough, all the pictures are uploaded to the web during the recharge cycle. Yes, they are downsized, and it takes about a minute per photo. But, if the kid,grandmother, or chimp manages to lose or destroy this camera and flash card, you still have the prints.
This camera is exactly what it is designed to be. And the picture quality is not bad at all, in fact sometimes pretty darn good.
