Digital cameras are fine

As the title of my review suggests, this camera is fine. If you're looking for an OK camera to give to your child, or if this is your first camera purchase and you want something simple and relatively inexpensive, then this one is for you. Otherwise look elsewhere. We were looking for an upgrade from our 6 or 7 year old Sony and this camera wasn't an upgrade at all. Apart from a larger screen and a better zoom, this camera offers absolutely nothing. We weren't impressed with the colors, we weren't impressed with the quality of the photos taken in low light, and we occasionally noticed the fisheye effect that other reviewers have mentioned. All in all you get what you pay for. We're now considering climbing a few notches up the price ladder to finally buy a camera that's significantly better than our old Sony.

Pros
  • Brilliantly made
Cons
  • Not as good as they say
