Review: I upgraded from an older model Kodak and am so in love. It takes excellent quality pictures, has lots of options and the zoom is great. The reaction time is unbeatable, but the time that image takes to appear on the screen is longer that I would like. It is actually smaller and lighter than expected for a 12x zoom. It even has a panorama setting. It does not come with a rechargable battery or charger,and only accepts special batteries...which is a pain. The battery and charger is 75.00, so be willing to spend the extra money.
