"Great camera for when I don't need the power of my SLR."
Pros: Clear, well exposed pictures of people and landscapes. Camera does a great job of detecting scenes and taking very high quality pictures. I would highly recommend to anyone who doesn't want to lug around a big camera (I have a D200).
Cons: Not much manual controls are available. But like I mentioned above, this is for those occasions when you don't need or want the big gun.
Summary: This is a great camera for traveling light and still getting high quality pictures--all automatically. I consider myself an amateur photographer and love to take photos where I'm in control of all setting--I have a Nikon D200. But there are times when I just want to do things other than photography. When I do stuff with the kids, I find this camera to be the perfect companion. Just point and shoot. The camera even recognizes my kids faces when taking group shots, and it makes sure that my kids are correctly exposed and focused. It detects the scene where you may have a very light background with a person in the foreground and compensates to expose the person correctly. The other beauty is the wide angle and telephoto--and it's not digital telephoto, it's the real deal.
