    This camera is good. You can change the white balance on it and ISO, but it's not good to take professional photographs. But all in all, its a fun camera!

    This is allegedly a point-and-shoot camera. I recently shot 150 photos indoors in good light. Oly about 15% of them were out of focus. At times two pictures were taken with 60 sec, of each other, one was sharp the other terribly out of focus. It does seem to have difficulty finding and keeping focus. I did better with my FM-2 manual focus camera.

    Works well but heavier than expected. I like the tilting viewfinder for photos in sun as it reduces glare.
