Small lightweight battery Stark

You must be aware that we are dealing not a reflex, but a little. lightweight digital camera that you can always take with you.
Three disadvantages it has:
an LCD viewfinder, which withstands any comparison to a conventional optical viewfinder: it jerky, you can not properly detect whether the image also is sharp, it is insufficient on the resolution here. (But with a 10x zoom, it is only possible via LCD viewfinder or via SLR)
an autofocus, which failed in dark and low-contrast motifs (no AF illuminator)
No image stabilizer, ie the (converted) 380 mm telephoto must be careful, otherwise you blurred (But that would be the camera much larger)
The Advantages:
10x zoom in combination with 4 million pixels, there is hardly a focal length left to be desired, the wide angle is indeed only a 38 mm, but thanks to Panorama function (only with Olympus memory cards!) Is not a problem.
4 x AA batteries (or batteries if necessary) ensure long service life, unlike the super compact little thing where ever the battery is empty.
The built-in flash (good Aufhellfunktion) can be replaced by a standard hot shoe at all times by a powerful external flash.
Also in the program mode can be quickly switched on and off flash, select spot metering, adjust the exposure up or down.
The image quality is very good.
All around a very successful Compact, with 380 grams (incl. Batteries). I can imagine nothing better to always have. The next quality level is consequently a digital SLR system with interchangeable lenses.
