    I bought this for my daughter, looking for something easy to use yet with quality. This camera was a constant disappointment. The focus was never right, the exposure was never right, etc. I even sent the camera into the shop for calibration and it still sucked.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    like the tilt screen, the weight is a little heavy but balanced. I'm on the fence if I like the use of AA batteries.
