Go figure. Anyway, it takes nice, sharp, well exposed pictures, but its no tank and lacks any adjustments other than focal length. If you want a real stripped down P & S it might not be a bad choice at under US$100. My kids still love it and run a lot of film through it, but by age ten I will introduce them to something more sophisticated.
