    All is good with the exception of the preview/review screen on the camera. If there is any light hitting it you can not see images.

    Because this camera was a gift, I can’t really say much from experience. However, the recipient is thrilled to death with it.

    Though I enjoy this little camera I am disappointed that it isn't compatible with my phone. The box should state which tablets and phones can be used for transferring pictures wirelessly.

    I believe this camera does a lot more than I need but so far doing what I want it to do. I am still in the learning mode and need to experiment with more. Believe good value for the cost.

    Only reason for four stars is due to the difficulty getting the wrist strap on. Silly as it sounds, there isn't enough space under which to thread it and I still haven't been able to do it.

    I wanted a small camera that I could slip in my pocket or purse so I could take it with me. It takes better pictures than my cellphone. The only thing I don't like is no viewfinder.

    Faulty automatic lens cover

    Posted . Owned for more than 2 years when reviewed.
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    The automatic lens cover doesn't always function correctly. It tends to remain partially closed when the camera is turned on and needs to be flicked or nudged to retract completely. This has been a problem for almost a year. This camera has been treated well, so I have found this to be disappointing. On the positive side, it takes great zoom pictures!

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    It took some time to figure out how to program the camera to recognize my computer to down load photos, but I like the way it works after getting the communication set correctly.
