Reviewer: Steve, Didsbury Manchester - UK
This is an excellent camera. I would recommend it highly to any one who wants high quality pictures,long battery life (250 before charging) and a range of scene options. The Natural light allowed some great pictures to be taken without flash. The navigation menu was easy and face detection was amazing.
I was away on holiday in Italy for 3 weeks and only charged the battery once, for 450 pictures, and that was because everyone kept looking at the pictures taken.
