    I am beyond happy with my purchase! It is the only "beginner" camera that was recommended to me that has intermediate capabilities. I had a professional photographer steer me in this direction and the very knowledgeable Best Buy sales associates words mirrored his. So far I can take amazing photos without knowing how to use the cameras full potential. I look forward to many years of capturing art and priceless memories. I have also found it effortless to find accessories that are compatible. I originally was not going to purchase the 2-lens but am grateful that I did! This is the perfect package!

    I’ve had this camera for about a month and I love it! When I first got it I was pretty confused on all of its functions, but over time I’ve become accustomed to it so now I know how to function all of it’s settings. It’s a great camera for both photos and videos. I highly recommend it.
