Pros Fairly easy to use, LONG telephoto
Cons LONG telephoto can cause a bit of blurriness
Recommended it? Yes

Its best feature is the 10X lens. This also is its detriment as the camera has no image stabilization which can result with blurry pictures in... Read full review »

Pros Shockproof, waterproof, compact, takes good-quality pictures.
Cons Shutter delay (as you would expect).
Recommended it? Yes

We wanted to buy our son a camera for his eleventh birthday, and even though he is pretty responsible, he does have two little sisters, so we knew that we had to buy something that he wouldn't be anxious about sharing. We looked at the "kids" cameras, but they weren't cheap, and the reviews said... Read full review »
