Poor image quality and mechanical function let this camera down significantly
Positive: At wide angle and low ISO, images are sharp
Negative: At anything longer than "wide" angle, and anything above minimum ISO, images are soft, grainy, distorted, the zoom is clunky and noisy, by noisy I mean the motor is noisy and exhibits clicking sounds and vibrations at several points through the zoom range. Also the image stabilisation is also mechanically noisy and not suited to a camera that pitches itself as being good for recording video.
