I paid $300 for this camera 2 years ago and it worked okay until it died today! Compared to the Olympus or HP cameras I used before, this was less intuitive but functional and pictures were decent. Camera shutter speed was disappointing as was the flash recharge time between successive pictures. It is bulky and not easily carried in a pocket or purse. One has to purchase the AC supply separately or pull the SD card from its slot within the battery compartment (should be easily reached from outside).
Problems:
After 2 years of light use, it just died after snapping a picture and would not power on even after putting new batteries. I could not talk to a real person at Toshiba customer service.
Lesson learned: I will not pay this much money for a digital camera and never buy one from Toshiba. I am sticking to film cameras for good pictures and will use a cheap digital (under $100) for casual use. As far as I am concerned, digital cameras have not proved their longevity compared to film cameras.
