qualityBokeh Diden't get any good bokeh shoots so I took two that missed the focus and showes the bokeh. Flare Flash (AGFA x-ray film on these pictures)
Quite plasticy and not as solid as the older cameras I ussualy test. Okey built and more like a farly cheap modern camera. Operating +

Conclusion In terms of image quality I would say that it's a nice little camera. Nice and sharp but with corner softness. Don't like the all auto exposure and you can't control anything. One way is to change the ISO to get a + or - in exposure. Also you get a little blinking red light in the viewfinder when the light is too low. This works good but camera can't even take a picture even if you want to in this case. Auto focus system works fairly good and it got the focus right in most cases but also very wrong in others. You don't get any indication if it finds focus or not. Can only press and hope that it got it right. There is a little focus scale on the side of the lens and I started to look at this after every shoot to if the focus got it somewhat right or if I want to take a new picture and hope that the AF system works for the next one. Also have a little focus lock button which is nice but you can only lock the focus one's for every shot. If you miss the moment and don't want to take the shoot you can't change the focus. Its a point and click camera which in most cases delivers great images. But everthing is all auto and this don't work every time. Thumbs up: Image quality Flare / Bokeh Quick and simpel to use Thumbs down: Corner softness Focus can only lock one for every shot No indecation if camera finds focus befor you take the shoot Everything is so auto, maby that why the camera is called auto focus :) Want to help
