This is one camera that is value for Money!!! It has the high end features that an ace photographer would die for and also the simple functionality for a part time photographer like me. The Video recording option is also fantastic and I have captured many a happy moment with my little son into this wonderful digital camera. The best part about this camera is the ease with which we can use it and the simplicity in connecting to a PC and printing / burning the pictures and videos.
If I am forced to find one weakness in this beauty, it would be that the video recording does not allow the user to utilise the zoom functions. Perhaps this would also happen in the later models (I dont know if there is one already in the market).
The camera may be a tad bulky when compared to its counterparts from the canon or the nikon stable, but what the hell, I would always go for a bulky camera than a bulky bill!!!
