Good: Macro pictures are stunning
Bad: Not much really
Comment: Great choice for returning to SLRs or trying them out for the first time.
Being able to control how you take a picture is a relief - just like the old days!

Good: Optical zoom, rapid startup, ease of use
Bad: Bulk
Comment: An excellent alternative to one of the digital SLRs. Most of the functionality at half the price. Built-in zoom lens meets 95 per cent of requirements plus it ensures that no dust gets onto a filter. I have not experienced any issues with image quality except in manual mode, where it is easy to stretch beyond the capabilities of the sensor.

Good: The brilliant 28-300mm lens and ISO range of 80-1600
Bad: JPEG compression (not bad if you shoot in raw) and noise levels
Comment: A first class point and shoot camera with all the basic features of a dSLR but without the stress of having to change lenses.
The 28-300mm lens is much better than the one that comes with often more expensive dSLR cameras and the ISO range (for someone who takes photos for work in conditions ranging from an outdoor festival in the summer to a dodgy backstreet club) better than even some high-end dSLRs.
