    Good Points: Relatively cheap price, best picture quality, lot of functions on an entry-level camera, excellent bundled software.

The 'battery eating' behaviour can be cured by purchasing rechargable NiMH batteries. If you don't like the slow serial connection when downloading pictures, I would recommend that you buy a Smartmedia reader USB or PCMCIA equipment.

The pictures I have taken are very clear, even at large picture sizes. So far I have mostly been using High Quality mode where I can store up to (approximately) 36 superb pictures on a single 8MB card.

    There are quite a few options with this c ...
