worst camera

This definitely is the worst digital camera I ever had. I bought it upon DP's recommendation because I needed a camera that would serve me on my travels as back up when I didn't want to use my pro gear ( I am a pro and have had bad experiences in Rio and NY). It had all the specs I was looking for. But not only was the picture quality lousy (I compare it to the Sony T90 I have) the auto focusing was so unreliable, even in clear sunshine with a clearly defined object, that more than 50% of the pictures were blurred. Most of the time I only found out after I uploaded the photos and saw them larger than the camera screen. Zooming into the tele range made everything worse. Absolutely unusable images! - I am pretty sure that I am not alone with my critic and as proof I would like to point out that the camera completely disappeared from the market. Can't buy it anywhere! Little more than a year after it's introduction. That's remarkable. - PS After initial curiosity I didn't even bother with that idiotic GPS system.
