(More customer reviews)I recently purchased this camera after a few months of researching point and shoot digitals. I bought a Sony P&S in Dec. '09 for almost $200.00 but it was limited to 3x Optical Zoom so I returned it. I decided to wait until I could afford an entry level DSLR so I would have more control over all the setting and focusing features but I was in a Radio Shack one day when I saw the S1500 and I really liked it. I went online to check out camera reviews and they were very positive so I went to Amazon to check out prices. That's when I found the S1800. I bought it because it has more Optical Zoom and it basically the same price.
I have been very pleased with the photos it takes. The only drawback I found is the time it takes to auto focus and it was slightly smaller than I thought. The size isn't really a factor for most people but I have large hands and slight nerve damage in my neck that causes my hands to shake. The anti-shaking features work very well but it does take longer for me to focus at high zooms because of the shaking.
I would recommend this camera very much for anyone who wants to take the next step in digital photography and can't afford a DSLR.
ALSO the bundled package was a fantastic value. I HIGHLY recommend it.
