The camera is relative easy to use and you can feel the quality of the material used in C700. The LCD delivers sharp images and the electronic viewfinder works really well almost like a real optical viewfinder. There is a slight delay during zooming and the response is not as quickly as optical viewfinder. This shouldn't cause any concern because the delay is less than 1 sec. The time taken to write an image is fast even saving in high resolution like 1600x 1200. The good zooming range really is a big plus and I really like its 10X zooming.
