Best Buy Ive Made In A Long Time!!:
I bought this to go on a cruise and man was it a great idea. I take this thing everywhere. Its so small you dont even notice it in you pocket. You can pull it out and in 5sec you are ready to shot. My friend dont like hanging out with me now because I always have the cam out reminding they how dumb they look. I take it snowboarding all the time it works great. Some people complained about the bottons being hard to push but can even do it with my gloves on. Underwater quality is cool haven't gone under 2ft... more info
Great take-everywhere camera:
This is my 2nd Xacti Camera as my kids keep borrowing my other 6 mp Xacti videocam. We've used it underwater while vacationing in Hawaii; in Seattle on our Kayak trip; I've used it to take underwater shots of our kois (fish) in the backyard. What I like with this camera is it's pistol-grip design which is very suitable for underwater shots (couldn't fathom some are critical of this design). Overall, you get a pretty decent videos and 4X6 prints out of this camera. I own a Nikon D80 and a high-speed 35mm... more info
excellent camara:
It is an excellent camara... The 8M pixel still pics is great. I have lots of pics with red eyes though, but I can live with that. The 2 M pixel video works very good for day shots.. Night video comes out pixelated but I am still extremly happy with it..
great camera:
I would reccommend this camera to eveyone the qualityb is exceptional for the price. I took it on a carribean diving trip and loved it.
