I've played with it, It does manual focus by making a beep noise when the shot is in focus. It was based on getting the centre of the viewfinder in focus. If it has a real manual focus through the viewfinder then i'd buy one.
Its the exact same camera as the panasonic Lumix and the panasonic is cheaper.
