This is my 3rd digital camera and while I'm not a pro, this is by far the best purchase I have made when it comes to digital cameras. The pictures are exceptional. The movie mode is better than my last camera as you can zoom while filming which my former camera did not do in the movie mode. I have not tried every option but those that I have tried worked great. I would recommend this camera to anyone who wants one that is small enough to fit into your pocket and that gives you the picture quality of those costing more than double the price of this one. It's a great buy.
