I'm satsifed with the image quality and with the size which lets me keep it in my pocket all the time. It charges up quickly when first turned on - a feature which prevents a shot from being missed. It's body shell is black which keeps it unobstrusive. The viewfinder works with my bespectacled eyes. The functions are: auto (flash when the camera thinks it's necessary), flash off, flash on, red eye reduction, and infinity lock (for shooting through a window). I would have liked a "slow shutter speed with flash" such as the Leica Z2X has. There is also an auxiliary viewfinder mounted on the top deck for "sneak" shots, but that's not a device easily used by my aged eyeballs. The only problem I've encountered is remembering that the viewfinder is in the center of the camera, not the corner. Roy
