    Strength:

    Great quality pictures. Nice zoom. I like the eye piece to look through also, so when outside you can see what you are looking at. Easy operation (lots of settings). In general great little camera.

    Weakness:

    No sound for video (not that big of a deal, since I have a video camera). It seems like to get a good picture I have to always have the flash on or else it is blurry and dark (no matter where I take the picture). But again, not that big of a deal. No manual focus - would be nice to have because in low light it has trouble focusing. Lastly, the red eye reduction seems to sometimes work and sometimes not. I really need to try and figure it out - mabye I am doing something wrong. Not sure.

    I received the S3000 as a Christmas gift from my wife. Usually I am the type of person that must have the latest and greatest anything (like 6.2 megapixel camera). Therefore, the first thing my wife said was, "you probably won't like it and want to take it back and get a better on". Well, let me tell you. I absolutely love this camera. 3.2 megapixel is plenty for me. In about 6 days of operation I have taken over 500 pictures. I even bought a nice printer (HP Photosmart - pretty nice itself). Anyway, the photos look great and they print out great. Again, I love it and for the money would not trade it for anything else.

    Have not needed them and hopefully never will.

    Just cheap digital cameras - not that good. JVC digital camcorder. Minolta 35mm camera - still like it.

    Haven't had very long but very user friendly. Great photos for up to 8 X 10. Good optical zoom. Would recommend it for the price.
