Review

This is my first digital camera after upgrading from a point & shoot. I've never used any kind of manual controls before. However, within an hour of unpacking this camera & browsing the manual, I was taking macro shots of my daughters hermit crab in full manual mode. Cropping & blowing up the picture to 8x10 produced a gorgeous, finely detailed and colorful photo. My 12 year old spent the day playing with this camera and producing "Ranger Rick" quality photos. Great camera, easy to use, light weight, excellent close-up and zoom capability... what more could you want.
