Cons: short battery life & doesnt come with a carrying case

It is a great entry level cam. However do not expect it to give you a clear picture on a sunny day with shadows, unless you zoom in. The optical, which sounds great, is not usable. You can not keep the image in focus or still. I like the easy of using

QuickTake:

Pros: Easy to use. The optical zoom works great. On screen choices
Cons: Digital zoom worthless. Clarity when view on TV not good.
