I recieved the camera just yesterday and have to admit I am kind of disappointed. At first sight, construction quality really fascinated me - everything's stable and in place. Even for a complete newbie to digital pohotography, handling this camera should not be a problem at all. Plus: It is really, really small and portable. Well, but this is as good as it gets. As soon as i switched on the cam and started taking snapshots, my positive impression turned right to the opposite. The reason: Several reviews on the net do mention a slight "blurring", i. e. insufficient image sharpness, but when I had a try myself I found this problem to be far worse. Even good-light shots (settings on auto) look unacceptably fuzzy - just forget about taking photos under lowlight conditions!
Bottom line: The SD-100 is the perfect camera - as long as it remains turned off. But when it comes to what a cam is all about, taking utilizable shots, it totally and absolutely fails. I'm gonna send it back and have an eye on bigger-size cams which do not make such an inacceptable compromise regarding image quality.
