Breaks easily

(jenp - 10/18/06)

I had this camera for a while, and loved its small size, but after about a year, the lens jammed and the camera wouldn't turn on. I looked online to see if I could find a quick fix and found that a lot of other users had the same problem. Apparently something about the mechanism that moves the lens in and out makes it jam really easily and it's almost impossible to fix. I wouldn't recommend this camera.
