Answer
Sounds rather bad to me.
Here are the pieces of information that turn me off:
"Camera effective pixels: 16.1 megapixels"
Too many MP. That causes needlessly much image noise in low light situations. MP are NOT a measure of image quality!
"Optical Zoom: 21x
Focal Length: f=4.5â94.5mm (25â525mm in 35mm equivalent) / (27â567mm in 35mm equivalent in video recording)"
Such excessive optical zoon is detrimental to image quality.
"Aperture: F3.1â5.8 / two-step (F3.1/F8.9(W) / F5.8/F16.7 (T))"
These maximum aperture figures are rather poor. This further excarbates any problems in low light situations or to sustain sufficient shutter speeds at extreme zoom.
Low numbers are better here.
Then again, these specs may perhaps be reasonable for a superzoom camera - but that type of camera usually sacrifices image quality for convenience. These cameras offer the worse image quality compared to other point and shoot cameras at the same price figure.

What are Triplet & Quadruplet?

captainjpi
please give me an answer.
Answer
Triplets-3 children at 1 time
Quadruplets- 4 children at 1 time
TRIPLETS
Having triplets used to be a rare and wonderous occurence; however, triplets now account for one out of every 8000 live births - 100 times as many as 20 years ago! This is due to the increased use of fertility drugs, as well as the increasing number of older mothers, who are more prone to multiple births. Here's all you need to know about carrying and delivering three bundles of joy.
There are four ways to conceive triplets:
ADVERTISEMENT
*
Fraternal triplets are created when three eggs are released and each is fertilized by a different sperm.
*
Identical triplets are created when only one egg is released and fertilized, but splits, and then one half splits again.
*
Mixed triplets - two identical and one fraternal - occur when two eggs are released and fertilized separately, and one of those fertilized eggs splits again.
*
Fraternal triplets may occur during IVF fertility treatment. Typically, three or more fertilized eggs are inserted into the uterus to grow. Three to four percent of pregnancies jump-started by infertility drugs lead to triplets.
In order to successfully carry three babies, you need to gain at least 50 pounds over the course of 32 to 33 weeks, the usual gestation period of triplets. You will need to consume 200 grams of protein daily, plenty of salt, and enough iron, calcium, folic acid, and other nutrients to support all of your needs.
After about 20 weeks, you may no longer be able to work or function normally. You may also need bedrest and to monitor any contractions two or more times a day to watch for preterm labor. If you do go into preterm labor, you may be given magnesium sulfate, to stop the contractions. Unfortunately, the magnesium sulfate will leave you very weak, drained and with double or blurred vision. But it can help keep your precious babies stay inside of you for as long as possible so they have the best chance for growing strong and healthy.
There is a 60 percent chance that multiple babies will be born prematurely or weigh less than five and one-half pounds. These little babies and preemies need special (and expensive) care and are often hospitalized for weeks or even months after birth. You may need extra care as well. Medical complications such as preeclampsia or toxemia are relatively common in mothers of multiples. However, because the number of multiple births is increasing, medical science is able to care for you and your babies better than ever.
You will need to buy a triple stroller and three bouncy seats, three high chairs, three car seats, bottle props, and other necessities. You may survive the early years of parenting triplets if you also set up more than one diaper changing area, a refrigerator and microwave in the nursery, and a special gated area of your house in which your babies will be completely safe. Another crucial investment is a video camera with which you can create a visual baby book and capture the joy (and chaos) of these first few years.
QUADRUPLETS
â¢Quadruplets or quads are a set of four offspring born at one birth.
â¢Quadruplets can be identical (monozygotic), fraternal (multizygotic) or a combination of both. They also can be all male, all female or a combination.
â¢Fully monozygotic quads are rare, representing only one in about 15 million pregnancies.
â¢A total of 418 quadruplets were born in 2005, the latest year for which data is available. Multiple Births Canada estimates that 90 percent of quadruplet pregnancies are the result of fertility assistance. The Web site multiples.about.com reports 3,447 sets of quadruplets in the world as of November 2007.
â¢Quadruplets do not always share the same birth date. A delayed interval delivery may mean that individual babies are born days or even weeks apart.
â¢The average gestation for a quadruplet is 31.3 weeks, as opposed to 40 weeks for a full-term baby. During pregnancy with quadruplets, a mother will gain 40 to 100 pounds. The average weight gain is 51.9 pounds.
â¢Most quadruplet pregnancies result in a Caesarean delivery; only 3 percent of quadruplets are delivered vaginally.
â¢The average birth weight of a quad is 314 pounds, and most quadruplets receive medical care in a hospital NCIU (neonatal intensive care unit) for an average of one month after they are born.
