    I use my camera for work. Great all around camera. It handles going from air conditioned cool air to temperatures around 110 (F) and still functions. I love this camera.

    I love the camera but had to really figure out how to use it. Still learning. I took a break, doing a different project.

    Nice aim and shot camera. The use of 4 AA batteries is good as you can buy AA batteries anywhere. Like view screen adjustments.

    A very good camera. I like the fact that it takes AA batteries - lithium batteries are great for this product.

    The only negative I've found is that it doesn't have a view finder. Just the screen. But that is personal preference, it doesn't effect the performance of the camera.

    Bought this camera for my wife. She loves it. She really likes having a dedicated camera but yet it transfers photos to her iPhone easily.

    So far this camera has been great. The moveable screen is nice when the sun causes issue with viewing. I look really cool like other tourists when I have it around my neck.
