I would recommend this to a friend great camera
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.For the type of camera this is the size and weight appealed to me most. This is actually my first DSLR camera and it's been a while since I've done any photography. I still have my 35 mm camera that I don't want to forget. So I believe that this will be a great starter camera.

User friendly
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this camera because I love to travel and sometimes my phone doesn’t cut it. It’s simple to use as a point and shoot but also I can get fancy and change settings (when I learn how to use them). It has 24.3 megapixels so I can enlarge my pictures when I print them and still have a good quality photo. The flip screen is my favorite part helps when different angles and the good old faithful selfie.

Amazing Quality, Poor Filming Performance
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this camera for filming YouTube videos and taking pictures for my social media; I have to say, photos come out AMAZING with this camera and the video quality is top notch... but after 20-30 min, the camera overheats and you have to wait to continue filming. Very frustrating and looking for other camera alternatives since I have been having such a hard time.
