With a very compact size, even by the standards of its class, this amateur camera stands out with a number of interesting features. In particular, recording can be carried out not only on removable cards, but also in the camera's own memory of 16 GB, and the set of connectors includes S-Video and an input for an external microphone. The software part is notable for focus on the face and the "intelligent" automatic iAUTO mode, and the optics — 30x optical zoom. 3" external display is equipped with a sensor. Direct copy to hard disk is provided.
