Strengths: Great zoom (10X optical / 40X digital). Easy to use. Nice size screen. Full manual controls as well as auto controls.
Weaknesses: You need to use rechargeable batteries. It goes through alkalines like candy. Rechargeables give you a couple hundred shots plus review time.
Summary: Takes pretty decent pictures. You won't get the sharpness of a DSLR but it's pretty good for the average/above average photographer who doesn't want to spend a ton of money. The manual controls give you the flexibility to shoot lightning and go for other effects you wouldn't be able to take on with a simple point and shoot.
I had a Canon Powershot A630 but when it drowned (kids knocked it into the sink...which was full of dishwater) I needed a similar camera. This was pretty close and 50 bucks less than I'd spent on the A630. Once I figured out I needed to use rechargeable batteries, I was good to go.
You'll be happy with this camera.
