SR Digital Zoom feature extends zoom to 18.8x, and does this rather well compared to other digital zooms

Records decent 1080p HD video for a compact digicam
Panorama
is easy to use. Allows for 360°+ capture. (Have to remember where you
started, otherwise you will get the same scene that you started with)
Cons
Strong CA in majority of photos
Small White Balance issue under tungsten and/or fluorescent lighting
Lack of labeling on the 4-way controller
AF during video struggled at times in lower lighting
Can't turn the instant review feature off, which slows the camera's shot to shot performance
When
the flash is recharging, quickly pressing the shutter release will Not
capture an image, however it acts as tough it did; which is bad because
it can easily fool you into thinking that took a picture if you are not
paying attention or new to the camera
Playback indexing is very slow
The
red camera button is waste of good button or space. If you are in
playback mode, you can simply press the shutter release to go
Fully zoomed images were blurry quite often
