Rated 4 out of 5

Fantastic value for money!!

1)Simple to use; turn-on-use.2)Very compact; easy to carry.3)Easy to share; images can be transferred very easily.4)Don't count on still photos (even though its a good option to have)5)I miss the remote control that I've on my Cannon Elura6) At around [$], its best you can get on the market currently.7) Count on Adorama, always (I did, even when I brought my Elura a couple of years back!)
