This camera is a bit of a missed opportunity. I've owned two previous Casio Exilim Card-series cameras in this same line. With each iteration, the camera gets better, and this one is no exception with respect to size, which is a big deal. The whole point of this camera is how small and therefore useable it is--you can take it to parties etc. It's smaller and more detailed than ever, and that's two steps forward.
However, Casio has inexplicably changed two things for the worst with this latest one. For one thing, it took away the cradle charger/downloader. No idea why they'd do that. It was a very convenient and stylish way to store the camera, and you could keep the battery in. Now you have to take it out and put it in the travel charger which is hanging on a wall plug--inconvenient and unsightly. Worse, you have to reset the time etc. on the camera every time now. For those of us who care about time and dates, this is a real pain.
The other step back, a worse one, is that once you choose a Best Shot mode and shut off the camera, you lose that default and it goes back to full auto. WHY?? The whole point of a tiny camera like this for many of us who keep coming back to this line is that we can fit it in our pocket and take it to parties at night. There, you need the Party or Nighttime scene mode. But every time you now shut off the camera and turn it back on, you have to go back to the scenes and find the mode again! WHY? Totally kills the moments, and it's a big step back. At least add an easy software option for those of us that want the camera to stay in a certain mode until we change it, like Sony has. This is a disappointing change in this line.

Seriously, go to Target and give it a test-run. As soon as you try the auto-shutter feature you'll be sold. If you set the auto-shutter to smile, it will wait until the subject smiles to take the picture. It's the best when using it on uncooperative children. No more waiting for them to smile and being a second too late. Also, the continuous shutter mode worked to get pictures of my mother who can never seem to keep her eyes open. It is an excellent point-and-shoot camera with 36 presets to get the right picture. It even has a pre-set for self-portraits where you're holding the camera backwards! In addition, it is one of the few cameras with a functional video mode. While it is a great point-and-shoot, it has easily-navigable menus to take control over every aspect of a picture, giving you the advantages of an SLR for the perfect shot, every time. It's light and compact design is great for touring or to simply slip into your pocket and take it with you around town. It is simply an amazing camera that takes high quality pictures. No regrets.

a lot of people would probably want to compare this camera to the coolpix, but this is so much better. i love this camera. it starts up in less than 2 seconds and you can take about a pic a second so its great for events... its super responsive to button presses. there is no delay and switching between modes is instantaneous. the flash charges almost instantaneously too. best shot is the bomb. i wish i could throw out modes though. some of them are utterly useless and fill up the screen. flower mode is great for close-ups. i wish there was a "macro" mode so i didn't have to go to "flower" mode. it also looks awesome. they even paid attention to the way the battery cover locks in place. this camera is perfect in almost every way except for.... battery life. yes you will have to charge it every night if you do a lot of movie-taking, which is primarily what i bought this camera for. the movies are pretty decent quality. very sharp, and suitable for youtube. just not very big... go with the black one or the red one and you won't be disappointed. best $214 i ever spent on a camera.

Camera is so great. So easy to use, so pretty, and it's easy to hook up to a Mac, which was the problem with others. Great camera all around, and for great price.

Awesome performance in a cute little package.
This is a tremendous camera producing amazing quality pictures in most normal day and night conditions, in such a small form factor, that you'll fall in love instantly with it.
