Review
The U-CA 4 is ideal for recording all those memorable days or nights out, as it has auto white balance, exposure metering and exposure compensation. This leaves you free to concentrate on getting the picture you want. You can also take pictures at night or in dark conditions with minimal fuss, as the UCA-4 has a Long Time Shutter function.
