"Good camera for snapshooter."
Pros: long battery life, powerful flash
Cons: extremely slow focusing, way too much noise
Summary: Got this camera as a replacement for my old Nikon Coolpix L3 and must say that I'm very dissapointed with it. One of the new features of this camera is ISO 800. Definitely wish it didn't have it as every time I use sports mode or take shots in low light situation, the camera immediately turns it to ISO 800, putting so much noise in the picture as to make it almost unnusable. The focusing takes way too long, especially in low light conditions.
Despite the cons, I was impressed with the flash of this camera. It does a good job of lighting up shadows, and is really quite powerful. I was also impressed with the long battery life, although I think this may have something to do with the long flash recycling time.
All in all I think this is a good camera for amateurs who just want to snapshot different things, and don't need any manual controls.
