Title: Not a good deal
Product review: There are many features and controls on this. But what is the point of this rich feature set on a camera that basically takes junkier pictures (on automatic) than my old Sony DSC-S30? The AE (autoexposure) frames still manage to expose my pictures wrong. The Sony with no such "feature" never got it wrong. The colors on the A610 are muddy and grey, not vivid. I have to take 5 pix to get enough coverage for one of them to be in-focus. pathetic. And the "camera shake" icon is the default state of this thing. What is the point of making a camera that uses it's technology to 'helpfully' tell you it can't take your pictures 70 percent of the time?This thing goes through non-rechargeable batteries like nobody's business.Not a good camera. Not a good deal.
