hy does a camera have to be thin? It doesn't, but if you like the idea of having a real camera in your pocket instead of just a phone that takes fuzzy snapshots, size becomes an issue and it's certainly more comfortable to carry something small, light and slender instead of a little brick...

Good Quick performance and excellent image quality. Unique "My Color" feature. Sleek and very portable.
