Decent Camera
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Takes alright pictures. But the automatic settings and different extra settings just seem off. Great for people that don't know how to use a DSLR, but if you have any knowledge about photography it is more annoying than anything.

hate
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I don’t like the picture quality. I would need to go into a photo editor to make the pictures look clearer. It’s way better on my phone.

Took back next day
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I'm sure this would be better for anyone better with technology but it was too annoying for me. It wanted me to make different settings each time I turned it on. I quickly realized it was not the camera for me

Eh.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Saw great reviews online about this camera, so I went to purchase. I would rather purchase a disposable camera. Quality of the pictures suck. My iPhone takes better pictures

Not for me
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I could not get the setting adjustment correct. Most of the pictures come out blurry. I should have gotten the Nikon 950 which has a much better zoom reach.

Extremely Disappointed

Great for beginners!
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this camera as a donation for a local fundraiser and I wanted to try it out and make sure it worked before donating it. I chose this camera specifically because I wanted the features to be aimed at beginners, yet still get quality pictures. As a more seasoned photographer I wouldn't use this camera, I prefer an eyepiece, manual settings and RAW. A beginner who is used to using a phone for their pictures will find this camera easy to use and get good results in Auto mode. Zoom is good, not the best on the market but very usable. The fact that it takes AA batteries is a plus to me, you can buy them anywhere and you can buy rechargeable AAs easily as well, and you never have to worry about a camera-specific battery being lost or eventually failing. Picture quality is good overall, but really requires good light. This is ok for beginners, it will likely be used outdoors or with the built-in flash which is fairly powerful. There is not a lot of room to grow with this camera, no port for external flash, no attachments for the lens such as filters, etc. Again, a beginner wouldn't need these features, but for the beginner who wants to move forward and reach the next level the camera is limited. It looks good, takes good pictures, and is easy to use. I'd recommend this camera as a good "walkaround" camera for travel and snapshots!

Very Disappointed
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This camera is not worth the money. The quality of the pictures is horrible. Have tried different settings and the quality is still garbage. Hate I missed the deadline to return the camera. Purchased this camera to capture the moments of my 7th year marriage anniversary and was highly disappointed to say the least.
