Nice compact camera, great for macros

I bought this camera for it's underwater capability but I find the super macro mode is exceptional. I plan to use it where I do not want to take a larger camera. Because of the smaller sensor this camera has it is not as good at high ISO as the larger sensor cameras. However, even at higher ISO the pictures I get are very acceptable as long as I do not zoom to 100% and examine the results.
