This is a good camera. It has great battery back up. With one charge, more than 200 pictures could be taken. With flash it comes around 150 pictures. It is so slim that it easily fits into your pocket. It has 32 preset modes and no need to turn any knob. Just choose from any 32 preset modes and start shooting.
However, after 18 months in service it suddenly failed to take pictures in daylight. The pictures come out in white only. Video and pictures taken indoors come out well. The Casio service centre informed when contacted that the lens have to be changed. It cost Rs.7000 for lens replacement. The CCD is non-functional. It could be due to exposure of lens to bright light like direct focusing on sun or some some bright lamp or due to moisture.
Its quite expensive servicing this camera. Owners, please take good care of it.
