Helpful consumer’s review
I bought one for my husband and I liked it when I was playing with it for a while to set everything up for his needs…. so I bought another one for myself. I really like the selection of the colors and the camera itself is very easy to use. One thing I didn’t realize until purchasing this camera was the memory card needed for. This camera has to have a XD card and it’s not SD card that most camera uses. If you own SD card already and not planning to purchase another kind, this camera might not be the right choice but even if buying a new card, price is still be very attractive.
