Great 1024x768 output and exceptional 800x600 pics if you take them in HQ1 and reduce with an fx editor. The shutter delay is ok and the write-delay is a manageable 10 seconds. While the LCD can be used in real-time mode, I wouldn't get into the habit of shooting that way just on battery drain principles. The primary shutter button is plastic and does not have a good feel, you jostle the camera when you push it full. Watch out for your left hand, the camera lense is left of center.
Camera forgets flash mode on power cycle.
Use the LCD sparingly under battery. The shutter delay is rather long, about half a second to a second, which means you have to significantly anticipate a live-action shot.
