While it is no Leica, it is small, well built, reliable and with an excellent optical quality compared to other P&S cameras. Also, the manual settings such as no flash, focusing mode, aperture etc. stay put when you turn off the camera, whereas with most other compacts (including the Minilux) they return to the default settings.
