Title: Very poor low-light focusing
Review: I wanted to like this camera. It's my second digital camera, and after a fair amount of research into small 3.2MP models, I bought it before a two-week vacation that culminated in a wedding. On the trip, I took some 350 pictures and also made a few short videos. When the camera works, it works very well, but I found that it was almost impossible to get it to focus in low light, i.e., lighting where a flash is needed. Furthermore, after several seconds of pressing the shutter release and having it fail to focus, I'd lower the camera, only to have it focus on the floor and take a picture at that time. I ended up with a lot of pictures of the floor. The video feature works quite nicely, and the various "scene" modes do well, too, but when the lighting got tough, this camera gave me nothing but frustration. I'm returning it tomorrow.
Is the review positive or negative?
