Reverse Side's Response to bulti's Review

Couple of solutions to some niggles raised here...
<br>Movies CAN be a bit dark; but the solution is to simply increase the Light Sensitivity to ASA 200.
<br>The 60 seconds limit can be overcome slightly by importing several clips into Windows Movie Maker and merge them.; otherwise if you don't need an audio feed, is to use the time-lapse mode for upto 100 minutes action in the 60 second limit; the S4i has a capactiy equivalent to the memory
<br>For the awkward 4-way button; the secret is to place the middle of your thumb on the switch and then lever in any of the 4 directions, it's much easier when you don't try and click the extremity of the small disc.
<br>
<br>Social gatherings, Sporting occasions, walks in the park, impromptu opportunities, landscapes, portraits, extreme close-ups the list is endless... pocket rocket that won't burn a hole in your bank balance. Get a spare battery as you'll want to take it everywhere.
<br>
<br>Get a case for a £1 and get some nice sweets into the bargain; Altoid mints has a case the PERFECT size.
<br>
<br>Macro mode for close-ups of anything is great; insects, plants, eyes, text messages you don't want to delete, food that's been cooked for you. Optical zoom is great too, not just a poxy digital that's only good for framing a picture.
<br>
<br>No need for a card reader as there's a USB cable include - if you fancy a 3D picture that's covered too.
<br>
<br>After 18 months use, the grass is still as green and I love the fact I've got 20Gigs worth of treasured memories - most of my friends and family have had their heart lifted by what this pixie-magic-marvel has captured.
