A:AnswerIf that store has one in stock, you can buy it there. If it's not in stock, the store might be able to have the camera sent to the store, and then you can get it there.
A:AnswerMany cell phones have only 12 megapixel cameras, this camera is 16 megapixels. Few phones have optical zoom and rely only digital zoom. this camera does 40x optical zoom and you can turn digital zoom completely off to eliminate the introduction of artifact flaws..
Optical is superior because you still have a TRUE 16 megapixel image.
A:AnswerTrish, pages 43 to 45 of the manual for my Nikon - COOLPIX B500 camera provides instructions for "Shooting with Easy Panorama." I have had this camera for only a short time and have never tried the panorama feature.
A:AnswerNot directly from the camera. You first have to transfer them to your phone, which is simple using Bluetooth. Then you can upload to social media.
