    Had this camera nearly 2 months & so far I am quite pleased with performance. Lots of options to help capture the perfect shot plus options are easily accessed & rather intuitive. My only issue is the placement of the record button is such that I often hit it accidentally when preparing for a still shot, but I’m not hitting as much now so hoping I just need to get used to its location with more experience using the camera. Overall, I’m very happy with this camera!

    I purchased this camera for my 11 year old daughter for Christmas. I read the reviews before making the purchase. It’s exactly what I was looking for since she’s into photography. It’s a great starter camera and has some really nice features. She loves the color purple as well so that was a bonus. Only wished it came with the rechargeable battery, instead of having to buy disposable. Not to worried though since we have a ton of reuseable batteries for all are household devices.

    My daughter turned 18 this year. This was a shot in the dark gift, which she literally shrieked about receiving on her special day!! She loves using this camera, learning how to utilize photography on her own, and is now getting outside of the house a bit more WITH her new toy. Wonderful addition to her 'gadget' lifestyle.

    i moved up from my beginner nikon to this camera, took it on safari in south africa, pictures are beautiful,zoom worked great, got some videos...only drawback was the video button is right where i place my index finger, so i occassionally did videos when i was trying to take a still, but it worked out fine...did recommend it to my hubby's business partner for their trip to italy
