    Like the larger screen than in the comparable Sony model. Wish stores carried the white version versus ordering it.

    Nice little camera for the price. Use it mostly as a webcam. Good features in this price range. Only criticisms are sensor size - this camera requires a lot of light and a manual focus function that only allows bracketed preset distance choices rather than the ability to do a fluid manual focus.
