I am very much impressed by this camera. The look is simply awesome. The blue color is also very nice. 12.1 megapixel is very good. Very excited to buy one.

I have had a number of cameras and this is probably the best one i ever had. I travel a lot and i just got back from a trip and i showed my family the pictures on an HD tv and the photos looked amazing. The picture intelligent shot is amazing. I love the way how it changes to portrait and then to twilight mode. The video in 720p is beautiful. I took of a football game and it looked great. Buy this camera!!
