Worth the Dough

Author's Rating:

Pros: Clear Pictures, Good size and grip, Easy and fun to use

Cons: Eats batteries fast, Isn't so clear in the dark (Even with flash on)

Bottom Line:
I payed in Canadian dollars, so the US dollar value may seem high. I highly recommend this camera to anyone. If you are buying this, buy NiMH or rechargeable batteries. Read More
