      This camera does not have image stabilization.

      It's not good at low light photos, the flash intensity is not adjustable, and there aren't really any high end features.

      Read a review of it here: http://reviews.cnet.co.uk/digitalcameras/0,39030232,49298554,00.htm

      If you are looking for a good 10 megapixel camera at a nice price, I'd recommend the Canon PowerShot A1000.

      It has 4x optical zoom, image stabilization, excellent picture quality, and it uses standard AA batteries. Lately Newegg has been running combo deals where when you buy that camera, you get a camera bag and 4GB SD card for free.

      The PowerShot A1000 supports running the CHDK firmware, which allows you to unlock extra features, like a live histogram, optical zoom while taking a video, RAW format photos, and many other things.

      I hate how people with LCD cameras have to take 3 minutes to take a picture. In the old days, you looked through the view finder and snapped the picture. Total time, 1/2 second. Now people think they have to frame the shot perfectly in the LCD. Since they don't hold the camera up to their face, they can't stabilize it. They hold it at arm's length while looking at the LCD screen. This makes the camera all shaky while their arms are swaying around. Then they expect me to stand there and wait for them to shoot their masterpiece before I can walk between the camera and the thing they are taking a picture of. Sorry, go waste someone else's time because I am not waiting.

      #5: that's why it's nice to have image stabilization.

      Unfortunately, some of the viewfinders in digital cameras don't match up all that well with the field of view of the picture you're actually taking. And, if you use the viewfinder, you won't know what your camera is auto-focusing on.

      #3: that's a nice camera, good choice buying that one.
      Have you tried loading CHDK on it yet? That will get rid of the annoying video file size limit on that camera, and allow you to use optical zoom while filming. Plus, you'll be able to take RAW format pictures if you'd like.
