Have the camera seen on holiday for 2 persons and found them great. 18x opt. Zoom etc. That is my new camera! Property me then all holiday pictures it sent and yet was bitterly disappointed. Pictures with ISO 100 shot pretty well, but at ISO 200, the images are prohibitive for the ambitious user. The colors are not pure, but have a color noise to filter out what is not well with programs. In addition, the Automatic Camera of strikes and tries to prevent the worst thing then ends in loss of sharpness.
Unfortunately, the Camera manufacturers must (not me) bow customers for ever more pixels and higher zoom levels to the wishes of "us" and then customers must obstruct the current, rushing small sensors. Would be better to do without a few megapixels and it to provide better images.
But who wants to have a Super-Zoom Camera and at color noisy images do not mind ... I prefer to stay there with my old IXUS 400 for the quick shot and attack otherwise rather just for SLR Camera.
