Great for Blogging

( - 6/1/05)

I've used it for 3 months to document my blog. Because I need to carry the camera everywhere I go, I need to have one that's as robust as it is compact. The M1 fulfills both needs. Taking self-shots is also easy due to the swivel screen and the vertical holding position. Many of the shots of my children are candid, and the M1's fast processor makes it a breeze because I don't have to wait a long time before taking the next picture. As an automatic camera, it's great, though I would have loved an easier way to manually override the settings.

One big drawback is it's impossible to mount it on a mini tripod when the camera is in a horizontal position. With the screen opened, the camera easily loses its balance and fall over.
