My biggest complaint about this camera is the very slow recharge time between taking photos.

But worse than the battery issue is the fact that it takes a long time to focus/take the shot, and then a really long time to take a repeated shot, even without the flash

There is a few second delay every time i click which is somewhat annoying but most times the shot is OK.

I cleaned the lens several times - with the same stuff I clean my professional lenses with - and nothing got the dust out

I will say this though the zoom is not great it has a hard time focusing no matter what settings you are

It is slow--long lag between pressing the button and getting the pic, so time for moving and blurring

There is a significant time lag between taking pictures, 5 to 7 seconds before you can snap another

Looking at some of the other reviews, I might add that I don't like the date and time on the face of my pictures, with this camera you don't get date and time on the picture, thank you Sony.

It frustrates me every time I use it!

It took a little time to figure it out, but super awesome.

The type of photography I do, I need clear and detailed shots every time

Poor recovery time from photo to photo.

okay, it's only when you start zooming into the photos you'll notice the slight noise that comes with the photo, other times the noise can be apparent straight away, along with the photo not being as sharp as it could

The 8 times zoom is nice, but not very practical over about 6 times.
