The camera is small, handy, easy to operate (even for me with glove size 11 and not really pronounced fine motor skills) and makes the mode "superior automatic" super-sharp images, even with a lack of exposure. The uniformity of light distribution at maximum zoom is much better than my old Nikon with 18x zoom, the camera shake at full zoom also works excellent. The storage of recordings is at maximum resolution rather slow-even when using the SanDisk Extreme 45MB / s, 16GB- (felt 1s, but is annoying when 2 or more photos of a motion to be made), but is the only drawback, the I could tell by 1,700 photos in various conditions with this camera. Therefore, full marks!
