I have owned this camera for three months now and am just beginning to move away from the Auto and other preset modes. It is my first digital camera and I bought it primarily for the 10x zoom which, so far I have used successfully from the inside of my apartment in sneaking up on unsuspecting birds outside on the balcony birdfeeder. For this I use a tripod, but I find that even without the internal stabilization, it does a good job with zoom pictures outside.
Problems:
The Camedia software is totally useless. I finally bought a card reader and used it with the {included } usb cable.
