This is a great breakthrough in small camera world. It's ten times faster than my old Sony DSC-H5 and a quarter of its weight and size. That alone is amazing. As amazing as it can play full-HD movies through the included HDMI adapter straight to my television on its own battery. With 10x zoom, it can double as a telescope, I could read the name on a large ship some 5 miles away (Sincerity Ace), although the image began to look quite grainy. On the other hand, the panorama feature makes almost 180 degree photographs that will make PTGUI users cry. It requires quite some time to get used to the right mode for the right picture, it can be puzzling at times. With this camera in hand, one can wonder what will come next. No more D-SLR dreams for me... small cameras is the way to go.
Problems:
This camera is VERY picky on SD Card memory. It simply won't work with A-Data Class 6 16Gb or even take a single picture with Hema 8Gb SD cards, so I'm stuck with an old Sandisk Class 2 SD 8Gb memory.
There's almost no metal in this camera. It fell some three times and is severely scratched, but still works!
There's a problem with auto mode at low light at night. The faces are washed out down to a few colors.
The USB cable is larger than the camera itself and that's a problem because it's a unique connector cable, and it weights as much as the camera!
