Excellent camera with many features
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Like the incamera tutorial. Pictures very detailed. Would like if the flash was built in but once you get used to manually setting it's easy Like the ability to do a selfie.

Perfect for me
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It does well snapping critters while I walk my dog. It is not a BIG lens camera, but the zoom is good and the camera is small enough that I take it along.

The perfect pocket camera
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I never go anywhere without this camera. It is fantastic. I love the pop-up view finder and use it often in bright light. I also love that the view screen rotates so that I can take pics while the camera is above my head or take selfies. The 30x telephoto is great. Even when I bring my bigger cameras and my DSLR cameras, I find myself reaching for this one often.

Great camera for travel and everyday use
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If you want to be able to take great photos and shoot quality videos at any time or any place, this camera might be for you. It is small and compact, super easy to use, but it is fast and powerful enough to cover most shooting situations. The 30x optical zoom is killer! I began using point and shoot cameras in conjunction with my "big guns" on professional shoots like weddings, sporting events and horse shows years ago. I can pull out my Sony HX80 and get quick candid money shots before I even unpack my gear! Often times now I will leave my Pro gear in the car when dust, dirt or a little rain might be an issue and I just shoot with my HX80. Who wants to always travel with a "big ole" camera bag when you can put the HX80 in your carry-on bag, purse or laptop bag? I have been a photographer my entire life and this little camera is more than enough for me to take on my vacations! Hey, it's less than $400 and that is value. Make sure to get 2/3 years of accident coverage, an extra battery and Lowepro - Tahoe camera case and 64G memory card.

Great Camera!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.First of all, I thought I got a great deal, but then I look at it again today, and its now $30 off... whatever, I had 2 100 gift cards so I'm not that mad... But besides that, the camera has lots of features. I was looking for a point and shoot and was going to get the Sony RX 100 M V, but then I thought, why spend $1000?!?!?!?! Then I looked into mirroless cameras... then I thought, why do I want to spend so much? I'm not a photographer! I just wanted a camera that shoots great quality photos... this camera does a good enough job. Plus, it came with other deals... I still haven't received my shutterfly offer, but thats fine... Great camera.

Great mega zoom camera
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sharp photos and image stabilization. 700+ zoom can be hard to use even with stabilization. Very compact and may be hard to hold.

Replaced DSLR
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this for my wife after she had our third child. We had purchased a Cannon DSLR several years ago, but it did not capture movement well and the auto focus was never reliable. Since most of our picture taking is of kids, that was a problem. My wife is an awsome photographer. She studied it in college. Film and digital. My grandfather was a professional. He started teaching me when I was a small child. The camera was the issue. However, this little camera has been near perfect since day one. It is not a professional camera, but it out preforms the DSLR every time.

Great Point-and-Shoot Camera
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased this camera to replace an aging previous similar Sony model. I used the other model happily for years, mostly because of its excellent low-light performance and remarkable 20x optical zoom. This model has built on that, adding WiFi, more functional USB connection to a computer, and a whopping 30x optical zoom! Add in easier exposure control, white balance, etc., and this is a GREAT camera for the price range. I frequently find myself using this camera instead of a DSLR because I can capture some fantastic shots in a more portable camera.

Fantastic entry level camera!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I got this for my girlfriend and she loves it as well as myself. Her first camera other than what she takes on her cellular. But this camera can do lots of things that have impressed us both. Ps I would upload pictures but they exceed the 5 mb limit

Good Camera but complicated
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I really like the camera but there is so many options to it that it becomes complicated. I was told that the Geek Squad would help me set it up and answer questions. Well when I showed up for my appointment. The guys at the counter told me they dont know anything about cameras and all they would do is "put the battery in" Well if I am not able to do that myself, I probably shouldn't have purchased it. It would be nice to have help in going through all the steps and options so that I can maximize the potential of the camera. I will figure it out on my own. but now it will take longer and waste more of my time.
