For £79.99 this is a great buy - can't agree with your review at all. If you want top quality images ay higher sensitivity settings, go buy an DSLR - this is designed for the point and shoot user who doesn't have the time, know how or inclination to adjust aperture/shutter/ISO settings etc.
Pros:
  • Size
  • flash
  • internal battery charging
  • 3D option and price
Cons:
  • Nothing at this price
