    Strengths:    Small, manual controls

    Weaknesses:    Washed out colors. Poor focus in very low light.

    Bottom Line:   
    Good camera, small enough to fit in your jeans pocket without bringing too much attention to yourself. What I enjoy the most is the manual controls of the iris and shutter speed. Image of camera isn't as good as Canon Cybershot. Colors are faded
