What I liked:

  • Very good photo quality (by ultra-compact standards), though see issues below
  • Wide-angle, 3.6X optical zoom lens
  • Optical image stabilization
  • Ultra-compact metal body, comes in three colors
  • Huge 3-inch LCD display; screen visible outdoors and in low light; useful Power LCD and High Angle features
  • Snappy focus speeds; very good low light focusing
  • Impressive continuous shooting modes
  • Tons of scene modes; camera can automatically select a scene mode for you
  • Well implemented face detection feature
  • Nice movie mode records in widescreen format
  • Some handy features in playback mode: calendar and category view, enhanced date stamp, multi-photo delete
  • Best-in-class battery life
