Entry level

Great camera
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This camera is really good so far. i haven't used it much yet and still have so much to learn about but so far it's been really good. The only bad thing is that it does not have a viewfinder and it's really hard to take pictures outdoors with the sun.
