When it comes to buying electronics online, I always spend a good few hours (or sometimes days) reading online reviews and this came up as a very good camera for it's value. In fact, it beat many reviews for cameras over twice its price. The reviews certainly were not wrong- and was very pleased by the quality of pictures and ease of use. I bought another Sony camera about 2 years ago, slightly more expensive, and again, i bought this based on it's value and based on excellent online reviews.
The picture quality is very good and i would say that about 5% of pictures i have taken have come out slightly blurred, other than that no problems. I normally just set the camera to take auto pictures (which works out how best to take the picture depending on the circumstances of the shot (e.g. night/day/snow etc.) and the pictures come out fine. You can however set it manually with easy to follow pictures which indicated on a dial for slightly better results, but I think i have only noticed better results with this so far with the 'night mode' setting.
I was very surprised at the excellent quality of the video setting. This runs at 30 frames a second and does have sound. I think it would be hard to distinguish between the smoothness of this and many video cameras, especially in sunny conditions and indoors.
It is also quite a robust camera, having got in accidentally soaking wet in the rain and dropping it a couple of times while running onto hard hard surfaces- works fine with nothing rattling inside!
A couple of negative points which i feel may be slightly unfair, given all the positives of the camera and the price- also the reason for giving it 4 stars, perhaps 4.5 may have been fairer. The picture given on the website of the camera is slightly deceptive. The camera actually goes back a bit further than the picture indicates so is not as small as you believe, adding a bit of bulk to the back. It's still pretty compact but not as much as i would have liked. The other point was that it takes batteries and while many may see this as a convenient factor, i would disagree. Buying batteries is fairly expensive and disposable batteries are really the only ones the should be used in cameras as recharge ones are not suited and normally last half the time. A camera with a built in rechargeable battery would be slimmer, cheaper and last for longer.
All in all a very decent camera, which i would urge you to buy if looking for a good quality, easy to use camera for under £100. You certainly can't go too far wrong with this neat bundle.
Any questions, feel free to message me.

Very good camera for the money but it doesn't come with a memory card. As shiped you can store an amazing 7 pics on the camera! You need a Pro Duo card. I bought a 4Gb card (Sony MSX-M4GS 4GB Memory Stick PRO Duo
)which stores (allegedly) over 1300 pics so you could get away with less. Other than that, very pleased.
