    CNET Review

    November 14, 2002

    The Good: 6X optical zoom; simple interface.

    The Bad: Low-res electronic viewfinder; noticeable shutter delay; hard to see the LCD in low light.

    The Bottom Line: Its 6X optical zoom, decent images, and aggressive price make this camera a good but not top choice for point-and-shooters.
