Title: I hate this camera!
Review: This camera was not my choice. I received it for my birthday after suggesting that I might be interested in a long-zoom digital camera with image stabilization. This is my third digital camera. I liked my 3x Olympus, 3 megapixel but thought I would like the additional features that I just mentioned. To begin, I hate everything about the Easy-Share program. The image stabilization does little or nothing for me. Even a tripod is not paticularly useful because the camera lacks opportunity for remote shutter release, the camera IS slow, the flash is weak. In most of the scene modes (and flash), the shutter is too slow for me to hand hold. The movie mode has great picture and sound but movies can't be burned to DVD for showing on a conventional DVD player. To me, that means this feature is next to useless. Controls are too complicated. About all that I can say for it is that it looks good. I'm just glad that I still have my Olympus!
