Seems like there are two versions, one made in Japan the other in China. I do NOT know this to be true...
Looks like good features, but many are unhappy with the image quality.
DPReview has a forums section that generally is a good place to read what users have to say about a camera. Like anything on the internet, take it with a grain of salt... a big grain!! What maybe MORE telling is find the galleries that users of this camera have put together, and find full sized images to download, and even print/evaluate for yourself.
Happy shooting!

Yes, indeed that is why I actually tested the camera myself and was getting the same results as the review from "Bluedemon" not sure about the Japan/China models though. All the test shots were macro or less than 2 feet and set to the highest res., very sharp focus and bright colors, used the on camera flash on most shots.
Keep shooting!
