My biggest complaint is the shutter. The slightest hand move can cause the shutter to slide to the off position. This will cause the zoom to blur the picture.

I was not satisfied with this product. It has poor value for the price. The photos using the zoom are out of focus. The flash does not work consistently.

Extremely dissatisfied!

Close-ups of people are completely washed out unless you stand way back and use the zoom, then they are slightly blurred. Red-eye doesn't always work. This camera seems to have a mind of it's own. I've seen clearer, crisper pictures with single use camera

I hoped for sharp pics as the other Mju cameras have - almost all of my photos taken at 170 zoom - (the fullest) - were out of focus. Apparently it needs very strong vertical lines to focus and these are just not always available - especially in scenery.

Pros: Good size, splash-proof.
Cons: Goes out of focus when used on full zoom - disappointing.

I have taken around 20-22 rolls in this camera. most of the good pics I have taken are outside. But the close-ups and with more zoom the picture quality as well as depth of colour are very poor. I never expected this quality for this cost.
