"Sub par pictures, bad touch screen interface." on by staryan
Pros: The camera looks awesome and being able to write on the screen is kind of neat.
Cons: LCD is low quality, touch screen has slow response and pictures do not really appear crisp even when you put it on the computer.
Summary: I thought this camera was very cool looking but looks can be deceiving it has a slow touch screen and all the cool things about the camera do not work as great as you see on the commercial. when you try and slide pictures with your finger the camera thinks you are trying to zoom in. when you turn the camera to get a different view of the picture it sometimes freezes in that posistion. The LCD screen has low resoultion so your pics do not look that great after you take them. I took my camera back after using it for one weekend.

I also agree. Unfortunately, I got this camera as a gift and feel totally lame that I gave such a crappy gift. The pictures are blurry, out-of-focus, grainy, and this is with autofocus, stabilization and the flash on! Basically, my friend's 8 year old, 1.4 megapixel camera takes better pictures. The touchscreen is awkward and the interface is very slow. And the zoom is all on the touchscreen which is extremely poor design. Thumbs down!

I totally agree with this review. I've had this camera for one week and half of my pictures have crazy lines in them from wierd lighting?and that's with the flash! Other photos are grainy or out of focus. Touch screen is slow and hard to control, but I had the Sony touch screen camera first (also for one week) and that screen was less sensitive than this one. I think cameras still have a way to go before the touch screens can compete with other models. I will be returning this one immediately.
