Hello There, about 3 weeks ago I bought from Amazon this digital camera because it was appointed by Audio-Video-Photo-picture at the price / value for money issue 3/2006. The pictures are nice and clear and pixilated in any way. The build quality is top notch, noble metal (no plastic!). The only negative thing about this camera is the SD card slot. The map is very difficult to get out (even had to use a screwdriver ...). Otherwise, the card works fast (HAMA 512 MB). But since I never need to the card slot, which is no problem for me, but can become a big problem if you often times have to change the card. Conclusion: For this price unbeatable. Flawlessly except for the bad card slot. Slamming!
