very disappointed with camera and service

Battery life is poor. After 1 week of non-usage it's depleted. Yes it is fully charged. Sent to Sony in Laredo,TX and they said there was nothing wrong with the camera. I bought a replacement battery because it's so unreliable. After a while it started...

light weight, has the fastest F-stop that I could find for a compact camera. This is impt when you want to get those "Kodak" moments with your grand-kids
