A perfect Budget Point n shoot camera

At this cost, this is a perfect camera that u can find which also has CMOS sensor. Dont go for megapixl as it will not matter. Image quality of this camera is superior than many 18 megapixal cameras. I recommend this camera under this budget.

Staggering camera

I am a user of a DSLR camera and when I ordered his one out of the fun of it, I realized the brilliance of this camera. The wide range you get, is really good and the intel that this camera brings out is also very impressive. For those who are looking for a HQ, above mid-range camera..this is your pick!

Awesome!!!

Bought this cam over WX-150/200, hx10v...awesome pic quality, awesome build quality...in this range its having the best IQ...doesn't have as many features as sony does, but for a casual photographer its more than enough...but if you can spare some more bucks buy a SX260, same IQ with better zoom and features...otherwise this is a killer.

Good buy

pros:
1) Full hd video capture.
2) Good image stabilisation.
3) Wifi connectivity.
4) hybrid mode during image capture(makes a short movie of all the pictures that you have snapped by capturing 2-3 secs of video during each click and putting them together).

cons:
1) camera shows recharge notification even when the battery is fully charged.
2) Hybrid mode fills up the sd card very fast.
