    This camera is easy to use, produces great photos and I am pleased. The only downside is the screen is less than 3" wide. It is my fault that I didn't read the product information carefully.

    I was looking for a small point and shoot camera for a recent trip to the Grand Canyon. It's easy enough to use, but I felt like I got better pictures from my iPhone 5c. If you don't have a phone with a camera, then this is a good alternative. Small enough to fit in a pocket. Had to purchase the memory card separately. It's great that the camera is inexpensive, but I probably could have saved my money.

    Rushed to buy a camera for an event. Affordable, easy to use, but don't have a choice of making flash work manually. It's either on or off. (auto)
