I haven't bought a camera for like 8 years, and I had been wanting a light weight compact that has smart features that help the novice ( me ) with photography. I love photography and needed simple to understand, but something that would be clear pictures from a distance and close up and especially night photos. This camera also has WiFi and blutooth capability so I can send photos anytime I want to share. Very easy to opperate. Much more so then my last Nikon. Great purchase.

I've always loved taking pictures and decided to invest in my hobby, I bought this camera has both auto and Manuel settings. A lot of cool features and I would recommend this to anyone wanting to take a higher quality of picture.

I purchased this as a supplement to carry with my Nikon DSLR. There are times when I have a zoom lens only with me and wanted the freedom to shoot close up or zoom. While my main camera does most of the work, this lighter weight camera is good to carry along. It can deliver sharp images from a distance, however I found the auto focus to be a bit weak. Even close up auto focusing seems a little weak. The screen size and ability to view at different angles is good, but you must be accustomed to using the screen only when composing a shot. Personally it is much easier for me to look into a viewfinder. Overall not a bad camera, but for the price, I can't recommend it as an only camera.

I would've given this a 5 star if it used the same rechargeable batteries as my Nikon D3100 which I've had for decades. I like the quality of the pictures, but the sensor on whether I still have my lens cap on is too sensitive and currently I need to smack it to "wake it up.". I get an error message " take off lens cap and turn off camera and turn it back on. " Frustrating , but still workable.

Great beginner camera! It’s very easy to navigate and takes beautiful pictures for a great price. Battery life is what sets this camera back. I used it for a good 3-4 hours total before I had to replace batteries. But other than that it is a good product.
