The wide angle end of the zoom range is equivalent to 36mm, about average for a pocket compact.

The telephoto end is equivalent to 133mm, slightly longer than average and better for picking up small details.

Flash range, exposure and coverage are very good. Red-eye reduction pre-flash was used for this shot, but I suspect Ben is actually Satan, so it probably wouldn't help much.

This is the same shot treated using the in-camera red-eye correction in playback mode.

Colour reproduction is very natural in good light.

These beach huts are in shadow, and the newly-painted colours look a little muted.

Macro focusing range is 5cm.
