I've been waiting for this camera for a couple months and I finally got it through Amazon. I've used it for 5 days now and so far I am very happy with this little camera.

Pros:
1. I bought this camera especially for its low light capiablity. I don't like to use falsh, but often need to take pictures of kids or cat indoors. It works really well.
2. The Backlight Correction HDR (inside SCN mode) works exceptionally well! Great for those high contrast outdoor sunny day situations. I'll post the sample photos for you to compare.
3. Soft Skin (under SCN mode) take portrait with softer, smoother skin (less wrinkles and pimples). My skin looks much better in the picturtes!
4. iSweep Panorama is very easy to use and the result is amazing! Great for landscape photos.
5. Surprisingly, the "Date Stamp" feature is back on WX-10!!! I used to use the Date stamp on my first Sony digital camera for all the pictures I took for my son, yet I could not find any Sony... Read more

I've taken about 500 shots with this camera, under some fairly difficult conditions, and have mixed feelings about this camera.

The great:
#######
1. It is easy to carry around
2. Its lens is not only bright (f2.4) but is also wide (24-26mm). This works great for indoor group photographs.
3. It is relatively intuitive to use, and you don't really need a manual. In addition, the entire manual is accessible on the camera!
5. Its panorama mode is utterly simple to use, and the results are spectacular.
6. Decent ergonomics - the controls are easy to find and operate.
7. It has a very capable flash - throwing light about 10 feet away.
8. The 7x optical zoom is awesome.
9. You can use standard Class 4 SDHC cards! No need to buy those memory sticks.
10. Supports in-camera HDR, which works rather well.

The not so good:

1. While the automatic exposure seems to be fine, the image was often noisy -... Read more

Pros:

1) Battery Life is great.

2) Very small and lightweight, but well constructed.

3) Very fast focusing.

4) Photos look great.

5) Works great in low light (I've permanently turned off the flash in each setting).

6) Going back into Scene mode remembers your last Scene choice (Nice for testing other modes for the same shot).

7) Has exposure bracketing ~ so you can manually create HDR photos.

Cons:

1) My huge gripe is that the built-in HDR function is ONLY available as a dedicated mode under Scenes. The HDR feature needs to be available under the Program, Manual, & both auto modes.

2) The camera is slow to be ready when changing to the Scene & Auto modes.

3) It has a unique USB cable, so it can't be used with other devices (none that I have anyway).

4) Aperture spacing in Manual mode only has high & low (yep, only two options). It would be nice to get a... Read more
