You have probably bought the camera by now, but I just wanted to let you know that I am happy enough with mine, and it does the job I want it to do very well. I bought it when it first came out, to take to Antarctica where we would be doing some kayaking. I wore it on a chest harness that allowed me to paddle but to still have easy access to the camera and I am very happy with some of my shots and there are few that are failures for technical reasons. The screen is hard to see in the sun, but I think that holds true for many cameras.
We also bicycle tour every year for about 5 weeks and it is the camera that I take on those trips as it is fairly rugged, a size that fits into a handlebar bag, and doesn't make me nervous if it's raining. The photos I take on those trips are mostly record snapshots, but again, I have been happy with the ease of focussing and with the technical quality of most of the images. For $200, I would say that it is well worth buying. It is a huge improvement over the Canon G series I had used previously. Hope you have fun with it!
