"Perfect combination of small size and picture quality."
Pros: Features are exactly like the SR11 and SR12 except much smaller & lighter. Sony's dimensions are wrong! This camera is the size of the old CX7 ... not the SR11 & 12. Size mattered and I didn't want to compromise quality by going to the TG-1.

"Easy to use, excellent video quality."
Pros: Carl Zeiss lens, quality of recorded video, ease of use and smile detection feature.
Cons: HD recording time on the flash card. Not a bad thing, 8GB card will store about an hour which suits my needs. Cheaper than the comparable hard drive units on the market.
