Yes, it is too expensive for what it is, but I bought one anyway. I like to collect odd or unusual cameras, so that was part of it, but I also thought about possible uses for it before buynig it.

It is easily pocketable, and I'll bring it with me on photo walks/drives. See something far off and only have a wide angle on the camera? Pull out the PS Zoom and take a look, and maybe grab a picture. I also use it as one of my "always with me" cameras since it's easy to keep in a jacket pocket. Picture quality is ok, about the same as other simple P&S cameras, so nothing to brag about.

Another thought, wonder if anyone would stop me from taking it into a concert/sporting event...

Same here, I think it's a waste of money but I still want it. I love to collect these oddities.

Thank you for your feedback!

Is it possible to get some sample images, those of the longer end like 400mm and 800mm?
