Easy to carry on

Only the software to sync with smartphones is not well explained. Also, the flash has it downs since it opens in a way making it fragile and easy to break.

Great for vlogging
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The mirrorless sensor does a great job getting shots similar to a dslr, only con is that in bright outdoors it's hard to see subjects without a viewfinder.
