Seems to be a good camera

I bought this as an upgrade for my Kodak Easyshare camera as I have an upcoming trip to Zion and need a better camera to take great photos. From what I've seen so far, it's definitely an update. I think it's a sharp camera. nice and compact, easy to fit in your pocket. I agree with other reviewers who have stated that there is nothing to hold onto when taking pictures. It's slippery and I'm happy with the wrist strap because I'm quite clumsy and don't want to drop and break it. I haven't played with all the features yet. I'm pretty much a point and shoot girl and I don't know how custom I want my photos to be. In any case, the point and shoot car photos I've taken so far look very good. I've been playing around with the zoom and zooming too far ruins the image quality. I still can't figure out how to get this thing to display your photos by moving my wrist as per the description, but sometimes the technology takes a little time to figure it out. What really pleased me was the on/off button. Yes, that's the most basic function, but I had a recurring problem with my other camera where the power button was a selector and it always seemed to turn on when carried in my purse, and basically it was the battery as empty as i did not understand that it is contained. There will be no problems with this camera. All in all I'm very happy with my purchase based on what I've seen so far.
