I have this camera and it is worth the money easily, but in no way is it a "mini SLR" it has a fixed 10x optical zoom which you cant change, but it does take great pics.

Read the details 'mini SLR Style ' STYLE is the word here.

As in its not a compact camera cos it has a ruddy great lens on the front of it. And it protrudes.

Nice find (the next model up, the S5700, is around £90-£100) BUT I'm pretty sure this is NOT a Digital SLR - it's still a compact with some SLR-like features.
If I'm wrong I apologise - voted hot anyway!

Ok SHOWMAN36 and aircanman beat me to it...

Nice price, however it does use XD cards... which is great if you have them. The newer ones take a combo of XD and SD

For this price, Tesco have technika cams, which are actually £10 more.

Granted they may be 12mp, but I would rather 5.1mp of fuji, than 20 of Technika. This is an ace camera for the money.

Title has yes, but the details are the same, they state SLR Style.

Read the details 'mini SLR Style ' .
It's still a misleading title. SLR is the mechanism by which the photographer views the subject. You see exactly what will be captured on film, as opposed to a non-SLR camera.

This 'style' of camera is known as a super zoom digital camera.

Good find though.

There we go, edited. Just wanted to include as much info as poss. This, for anyone who is interested is marketed sometimes as a Baby SLR. As it has alot of features that an SLR camera has. It does not have interchangable lenses. Just has a similar feel to that of an SLR.
