None... As far as I can see.

Photoshop, and other software, can do this quite easily AND give you better control over the final 'look'. In addition, you will always have the original non-solarized version of the photo.

Downside: whatever photo you solarize in camera, will be solarized permanently. No possible recovery of the unsolarized photo.

Upside: none that I can see.

This is just one of those gee whiz items manufacturers are building into cameras so they can list it as a 'feature'.
