So I got this camera last summer and overall I'm fairly happy with it. I didn't quite know what specs I was looking for when I bought the camera but the main features I wanted at the time was that A. It had able to take high enough resolutions - which it can at 6.0 megapixils and B. That it had a timer/delay - 10secs which is great and in all honesty, not many cameras had this feature when I was looking.
I've always enjoyed playing with Photoshop which is why I wanted to invest in a digital. As much as I know about Photoshop, I have since then learned that I knew very little about actual cameras.
Looking back, I wish that I had purchased a digital SLR, but given the incredible price difference, I can live w/ this camera for now. I am still interested in getting an SLR sometime down the road - however that maybe have to wait till other big purchases have been made. I find that my camera is also lacking in night time photography. If I leave it on normal portrait mode w/ a flash, it seems to do ok, however nighttime mode is almost useless; it requires me to hold still for about 5 seconds while it completes it's flashes and almost always everything turns out too yellow. The regular mode seems to be the best option while it still creates heavy noise - I have found a Photoshop plug in that helps reduce this.
The specs that I enjoy about this camera:
~ Sleek design
~ light weight
~big viewing screen
~uses an SDcard which I find more universal then say a sony memory stick
~10 second timer/delay
~can upload to computer via wifi
