"I ordered this camera for my mother-in-law who is very technologically challenged, so I wanted the simplest digital camera I could find! Since it is basically point and shoot automatically, it works great! She likes its simplicity to operate and small size very much! We do want to get a bigger memory card for it now as she ran out of space for pictures, but I wanted to make sure she liked it 1st - it fits great in her purse & the blue matches her cell phone! I liked the price too - only have seen once since I purchased this one for a few dollars cheaper on sale at a local discount store!"

"This camera was ready for action right out of the box! My husband & I read the directions, put in the batteries, and began using it in, literally, 2 minutes! Could not be any more user-friendly. This camera is perfect if you don't want to fiddle around with settings. Excellent purchase."

"I bought this camera as a gift for my sister- and was so impressed by the quality of her pictures and the convenient size that I ordered one for myself. I have a larger, more complicated camera, and this one is easier to carry around, with similar quality snapshots. The convenience was far and away the deciding factor, but the ease of use and picture quality is a definite plus."

"This is an excellent camera. Small, easy to use, very affordable. The learning curve is very short, just point and shoot, and the quality of the photos is excellent. I would and have recommended this camera to family and friends and use it often in my business and for records of items I am repairing (before, after). I'm very happy with this purchase!"
