The display is large enough and the presentation fits. The large and intelligible symbols complement the good menu navigation that does not make it even a layman too difficult to understand. In addition to the normal photo and video mode, there is also a "Panorama" mode, which promises an easy way a 360 ° uptake. I've not yet tested.
The photos are good and perfectly adequate for the price range of the camera. Wonders one must however not promise.
The video recording also makes a good impression, however, has the following disadvantage: the HD mode makes playing on a 08/15-Netbook unbearably slow and choppy. I should try it on a halfway modern machine that but. In addition, the unit is still in a comic format that does not want to play each player. So you should better convert them to a common format, even if this means a loss of the HD - what one should, however, assessed as not so tragic, eventually not buy this type of device so as a mobile film studio. For this you should invest in a decent camcorder actually.
In addition, the pre-installed on the camera software does the conversion pretty straightforward in a .wmv format and voilà - the movies can be played back as normal (note I have not yet tested). The installed image management program still offers some nice gimmicks, such as a sorting function all lying on the computer photos by date (as far as the receiving device supports a date format has ..), just get under one intuitive calendar.
The manual is rather scarce, but also does not require epic detail, since - as mentioned above - the menu navigation is intuitive and easy to learn.
Conclusion: for the price a strong buy recommendation !!! As a mobile device snapshot absolutely fit and even a bit more! For professional photography and video shooting you probably would invest significantly more Euros (must) if, and only a very blue-eyed Fotofreund should be aware only after the purchase of this camera.
