You can see from the price that this is the budget model of the group, but even if money is tight it's still worth saving up for something better. Its 5-megapixels sounds impressive for the price but results were actually rather poor, washing out bright images and failing to boost darker situations with a feeble flash. There's also no optical zoom and using the digital option takes a heavy toll on image quality. It isn't easy to use either – changing any kind of setting, even swapping from still to video mode for example, is a significant fiddle.
