    I didn't expect to have an excellent camera when I purchased it, but I definitely plan on using it to best of my photography skills I can!

    I know this was a low-end priced camera, so I didn't expect top quality, but I have been disappointed in the color of flash pictures. Outside natural light is good. The video is good. Also have trouble with the auto focus at times and there is no option for manual focus. I have missed some shots because of that.

    Works perfect so far. I have never purchased a refurbished camera before so this was new to me. So far everything works great. The item was shipped to me very promptly.

    For what I wanted to use it works great the one drawback is that the batteries are not rechargeable.

    The amount of zoom you get out of this camera is insane. Great for zooming, but standard shots can be a little lackluster. Hard to beat for the price.

    I love this camera. Takes great pictures. Not that heavy. The color is different. Be aware it did not come with len’s string thingy, so you can easily lose the lens cap.
