    This camera has some major zoom and good quality for that purpose. Not so good for the close up. For now, I will stick to my camera phone until i can afford a true dslr.

    Zoom on this camera is great. I take pictures of real estate and have been able to get clear property details from a distance. I am a definite fan of this camera.

    It's a great camera as point and shoot. Just hard time to take good clear pictures in indoor moving objects (like my son playing soccer indoor). Otherwise great camera.

    Great camera for someone who never had a camera like this. The only issue I have is it not connecting to the SnapBridge app. If you're not into that then it is perfect.
