    I brought this camera to replace my Canon PowerShot SX730 HS that was stolen. All the features are there and very familiar to me. The 40 optical zoom came in really handy while I was on the African safari trip. IIt is still difficult to capture fast moving object with this camera. Overall a great camera for this price range and size.

    The quality of video and sound - I love. Which was most important to me. The auto brightness and focus, help in every circumstance where I record.

    I wanted a new camera for Christmas and after reading reviews decided I would rather get this one than a DSLR. I LOVE this camera!! The pictures I’ve taken turn out so nice, and I have learning yet to go for the functions. I look forward to going hiking next year and taking outdoor photos when we go.

    Great camera for simple use. I wouldn't use it for anything professional but if you need something cheaper with solid quality, this could work.

    I bought this camera so that I could have zoom capabilities on a recent trip to Europe. Normally I use my iPhone, but I ended up using this camera much more. The pictures were amazing, and I was able to zoom with great quality and clarity. I highly recommend this camera for the price and the 40X optical zoom.

    Just got the camera but it is set up on a tripod taking "birds at the feeder" pictures and so far it is working great. It is lightweight and will fit easily into a pocket for outdoor use, The movable viewfinder / screen is a nice feature, A more extensive "how to" book would be an improvement,

    I am a science teacher who has been forced to change the way I present labs. This camera has been an absolute life-changer in how I can present these labs. Specifically, what used to take 5 to 6 hours to prepare now takes about 90 minutes. Great value and easy to use!

    I am a home inspector and use it daily, taking anywhere from 100 to 175 pictures a day and it’s awesome The only issues that I’m having is that I cannot figure out how to minimize my pictures with the resize it app. My older model was much easier to use in that mode!!

    We are amateur photographers but this camera with the powerful zoom lets us capture some great photos! We use it mostly for photographing wildlife when we are kayaking or hiking. Very satisfied with this purchase.

    Already Have a Canon Rebel BUT this compact camera takes amazing photos. The colors. The clarity. Amazing. Bought it and took it on a trip the next day - need to delve into the on-line instructions (PDF) to really get a grip of all the special features. Like the swivel screen. Very functional.
