Untitled ReviewSome of the things that set this apart from the rest of the cameras out there include.
1) Being able to use AA batteries. I bought a set of rechargeables that last me a long time (5 trips at least) But if they run out I can go into any store anywhere and get a battery.
2) The camedia softwear that comes with the camera allows for rapid downloads and effective processing of pictures.
3) Durablity-It has been dropped no less than a dozen times and still shoots great pictures time and again.
