This was the first digital camera I purchased because it was a good price at 5 mega pixels. This camera is very light weight, and very easy to use, I didn't even read the manual. The internal memory only holds 12 pictures. It has low battery life so I bought rechargeable batteries for $7 and it works great, I can use the camera all day everyday without having to recharge the battery. I also bought a 256 SD card for $15 which gives me 253 pictures.

The picture quality its pretty good until you zoom then it becomes more blurry, and grainy the more you zoom. It is also hard to see anything in the lcd screen if your taking pictures outside at night, or in a club, or party. I thought it was like that for any camera but my friend's camera you're able to see in the LCD screen before taking the picture in dark settings.

The video feature works pretty good in well lit settings otherwise your unable to see anything. Your unable to zoom in with video, and there is no sound available.

The software is very easy to use and transferring pictures is very easy. Its a pretty durable camera for the most part I've dropped it a few times and its still working fine, but with a few scratches on the edges.
