Very good

The good: Eye-catching design; big, bright 2.5-inch LCD screen; solid snapshot feature set; pleasing photos and excellent movie quality for a combo unit; great performance.

The bad: Horrible bundled software; control layout takes some acclimation; low-light shutter lag.

The bottom line: If you're looking to buy a digital camera that takes decent movies, this is your best current option.

Features are great, lens is terrible!

Opinion:
I love how this camera works... easy-to-use interface and button layout. Is also quite fast when reviewing pictures. The only problem (is a big one) is the lens. It doesn't work very well in low-light situations (e.g. indoors or at night). My movies indoors often turned out ruined, even though all the lights in the house were turned on... kind of a turn-off due to the fact that I bought this camera for social gatherings, which were mostly indoors...
