Thanks for your suggestion, I have tried ct and it works well, I took pictures of our xmas tree and cats, in dim light, which I couldn't before. Not bad quality, but the best pictures are done outside. I am also using the camera, to take pictures of our
storage stuff, in various boxes,and using the pencam software, I can categorize this, and instead of having to write down, what is in each box, the pictures tell the story. It works for keeping track, and finding out where things are.

Sorry, I am so late on thanking you for your comment, but I have been busy in a new project, and haven't been back to my review.

If you do buy this camera, be sure to use the software, especially videomail, it is an excellent compression program, for movies, it sends an execution file which allows others to view your movie, without the software.

The second software, is video studio, this allows you to splice movies, sound and music together, and also sends it as an executeable file.

The third is cool 360, an excellent program for splicing pictures together, and shows them in a 3d view.

These programs alone, are worth the price of the camera.

Good luck

One of the other reviewers noted that by switching to Ct Mode and taking a few shots deactivates the light sensor indoors. If the lighting is good, but not good enough for the sensor to let the pic fly, using the Ct mode may be a way around the indoor picture quandry. I liked your idea of using the movie mode for correcting a golf swing... great idea.

I'm looking for a flash camera, but this does sound like a decent one for the price. Thanks for the detailed review.
