    Great camera for music festivals. Light and easy to carry and relatively inexpensive just in case you brake it. :D

    I brought this camera so I can get more pics of my kid. I have an iPhone and it is cool but doesn't hold a lot. It's easy to use and I enjoy it!

    We have this to our son for his trip broad. We hope he puts it to good use and take lots of picture. We've always been happy with Sony products. This one is small and takes great pictures for its size.

    Easy point and shoot, well rated by those outside of Best Buy too, the camera lacks two definitive elements in this time period (it's a 2014 model): 1. Wifi functionality; 2. A microphone that picks up loud voices in close proximity. I'm not hard of hearing. The mic on the camera is less than adequate if using in any way for video. Go for a 2016 model when available.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend
