All in all I'm very happy with this camera, especially the low noise at high ISO settings, thanks to its slightly oversized (for a compact) 6MP "SuperCCD". It will be great for shooting in low light without a flash which is what I found myself trying to do more than anything with a compact camera. And the flash too will be more useful as the high ISO capability will mean a range that extends beyond a few metres. Who knows, I might even try to squeeze an astrophoto out of the little camera at Little Desert and/or at Snake Valley.
It's a shame about the chromatic aberration of the lens (and could do with a bit wider angle zoom too) but I knew what I was in for there before I bought it. As Steve Wright put it: "You can't have everything. Where would you put it?"
