Key Advantages

The Stylus 600 is praised for its compact and lightweight design, making it highly portable. Its 3.2-megapixel sensor was competitive at the time of release, providing reasonably clear images. The inclusion of SmartMedia card support allowed for expandable storage options. User-friendly controls with automatic exposure simplify operation for beginners. It offers solid battery life using standard AA batteries, facilitating easy replacement. The camera's ruggedness and build quality provide durability for casual photographers.

Limitations

The camera's image resolution and sensor size are limited compared to modern standards, impacting image quality in low-light conditions. Its optical zoom range is modest, restricting flexibility in framing distant subjects. The lack of advanced manual controls may limit use by professional photographers. Storage media (SmartMedia) is outdated and has relatively low capacity. Video recording capabilities are either absent or very limited. Additionally, the camera lacks modern connectivity options such as USB 2.0 or wireless transfer, requiring older methods for data transfer.
