I had one of these too. I only parted with it this year. I gave it to my brother who, I believe, then gave it to his kids to use. It was a brilliant camera!
The picture quality was good, good enough for what I used it for (holidays mostly, and the odd family occasion).
The only real downside as far as I can remember was time it took to get going. I got so used to seeing that lens slowly extend that I didn't realise how slow it was - until I got a new camera this year (Canon Ixus 65).
That's the only downside as far as I can tell. Great camera!

Me too! by: Gordon
Hey, I had one of those too!
I loved the way you could add extra lenses and filters to the camera (it had that removable ring around the lens) - great idea. I even bought the wide angle lens, it worked a treat!
I seem to remember it took nice photos. I also seem to remember that it took ages to start up. Sure I missed a few shots waiting for it to get going!
I got rid of mine a while back. Sold it to a friend at work (who left, and I don't know where he works now). Was still working well at the time. For all I know it still is!
