I already have good equipment I bought the DSC-U10 for the convenience factor. I have modified a mobile phone case to carry it on my belt.
Looks like another mobile phone therefore you are not regarded as a nut case carrying a camera everywhere. I am very pleased with the picture quality which is better than I had expected from 1.3 MP. Hard to frame picture in small screen but this is a limitation trade-off for the compact size. Batteries last well and the camera has a quality feel about it. I have become very attached to it - it even can be used as a mobile mini-photocopier at a pinch. I bought a 128 memory stick so I can store an impossibly high 700+ pictures if necessary.
Problems:
None
