Summary
One of the cheapest superzoom cameras on Israeli market. Good camera for beginners and for those as me who have a little hands. Since it does not have an image stabilizer, better to use tripod for telephoto.
It is possible to make movies and use zoom up to 12.
Strengths
Neat photos even on ISO 800
quiet work
little weight
Convenient shape especially for little hands
wide range of set-ups
"Hot" buttons for ISO,resolution, color adjusting, bracketing, series, aperture, shooter spees and exposure compensation
Usage of both XD and SD memory cards
relatively low cost
bracketing enable
Big and convenient LSD display
Good macro shots
Hints on programmed regimes to correct setups (histogram, color of unprogrammed parameters)
two buttons for user-defined special programms
Weaknesses
No panoramic photo
No image stabilization
The only "antishake" programm is ISO 1600, so better to forget of it
No possibility to set maximal ISO on auto
No automatic rotation of image
