3 Years and still going.......2005-01-31

I actually purchased this camera while I was vacationing in Hong Kong in early 2002. The touch screen is a nice bonus, but it has done surprisingly nice 4x6 and 8x10 prints from my Epson (Stylus740) printer without "pixelating" or grainy distortion. I am printing on Epson photo paper. The main problem I've started to have is the flash gets stuck when popping open for shooting. Not a major killer, as I've taken this camera to HI, AK, and too many parties and last minute "crazy airfare deals" to remember. I've tried the camera in all three ISO modes, got some stunning Alaska wilderness pictures in Sepia and B&W color modes, and have taken most of my shots with "High Quality" picture mode. I've had to replace the battery once so far, and have been able to get more than 300 shots on a 256MB SD card.
The outside case has held up fairly well over the years. The chrome plastic lens cover that slides out of the way has taken a minor share of scratches. I've never used the accompanying soft case for this camera, preferring to just "coat pocket it" when necessary.
Overall this has been a great lightweight, point-and-shoot camera. People are surprised to see me pressing on the screen and tweaking the settings while setting up a shot or 3 clicks to force a flash when taking sunset subject shots. It continues to serve me well even with the addition of a 12x Panasonic DMC Leica digital for close-up wildlife shots. When it comes to pictures of the family, it will definitely be the one for getting the quick shots in.

Best 2 Megapixels Camera Out There!!!.......2005-01-27

This camera is just amazing! All my friend who owns 3 and 4 megapixels camera are just looking at my camera and want it. I was afraid at first of purchasing this camera because of the lack of reviews but it is just such a smart purchase. How many camera out there have TOUCH SCREEN LCD ??? This must be about the only one that has it. There is a paintbrush tool in the camera so you can take notes directly on your pictures(recorded as a different file) and you can draw whatever you want. The picture quality is very good in most circumstances. The only problem I get is red eye which I quickly eliminate using a photo editing software. The battery is amazing and can last for over 150-200 pictures before recharging. Downloading picture to computer is very easy. The sliding cover protect the lense and is pretty cool. They could improve on the start-up time but it is ok if you know how to use to camera well. I am definitely happy with my camera and I am about to take my 2000th picture with it without having a single problem yet. I don't own a case and always carry it around in my pocket because of the tiny size. I highly suggest you getting this camera, the touch screen and picture quality is just amazing!

Good Starter Camera.......2003-07-17

This is a good Camera if you just want point and click. No having to worry about file formats (only does jpg) and focusing .If you need to do things manualy buy another camera. The LCD is easy to use and the internal battery is nice touch since you don't have to buy batteries. The main drawback is if you forget to charge it you can't just buy batteries. The software is easy to use both on the camera and supplied for the pc. It also supports a sd card which is really nice as well. Like I said before this camera is for those of us who just want to take quick pictures when were out without much hassle.Overall I am happy because that is all I want out of a camera. Much better then buying disposables or a cheap 35mm camera.

Very good deal.......2003-05-10

I Got this camera last week, ...
what makes this camera distinctive is it's touch and very sharp LCD , brilliant body design and slim size, it comes with rechargeable battery which saves batteries drain. it's very easy to operate even from first time, resolution of this camera is minimum requirement for you needs. Only movie mode is not available in it which is the only the drawback I found.
