Battery and USB Cable

Firstly, picture quality is great (thanks to the 12 megapixel sensor, and the decent Carl zeise optics). Secondly, the LCD on the back is very large and clear, which makes using it a pleasure

Whether you are using it in the quick and simple 'automatic' or 'easy' mode, or trying one of the many preset modes, the results will almost always be great. I love the addition of the specialist settings (the 'snow' setting is particularly useful for me - maintaining the white of the snow by intelligent exposure), and there is even the option of exposure bracketing if you want to play around with some HDR photographs (my Nikon D60 SLR doesn't even have that!).
