Have to say, for the money you get a really great great camera. We had until recently a Sony DSC-HX7V has delivered a super quality. But suffered a total loss after a fall. Therefore I was looking for my wife a new camera that is not only visually appealing, but which can sometimes disappear in the handbag. Unwrapped, charged, memory stick in and losgeteset. While you can adjust net a lot, but we did not only once regardless. The default settings of the camera range completely. Clear, for professional shots is not enough, was and is not our desire. The quality of the photos is really impressive. Had not even the Sony hinbekommen. By simple means to the goal. Supertoll I also find the "Photo Thumbnail". You really your idea, you have photographed a miniature landscape. The Panorama function is fun and a great result, as the "Through Glass" function. We were also surprised by the macro-recording. One can very very up close to an object and get a sharp photo as a result. The purchase we do not regret. Strong buy recommendation.
