Yes. It has a "night shot" mode that would be much more powerful if they didn't deliberately cripple lots of the settings in that mode because that feature in an earlier model could be used to see through people's clothes.

Also, the swivel body allows me to make macro images that I simply couldn't make with a fixed position lens like on a DSLR-- most of my plant and insect close-ups are taken at angles that would either demand that I either take the photos "blind" or be a contortionist dwarf. Hence, rather than wanting a new model, I want another of the same 8-year-old camera.
