    Not too impressed with picture quality. Definitely need to be camera knowledgeable to figure out the correct settings to get the best result. However, decent camera if you just need something to take pictures with.

    The price was spot on to what I could pay for this camera & was hoping 20.1 pixel would exceed my 8 pixel Canon it replace but it is less than stellar. I'm have trouble wrapping my head around the different aspects of camera setting & have tried a lot of setting but can't get a good (non fuzzy) picture when I zoom in. I take a lot of pictures from my patio door to my bird feeder which is low light inside but the photo is poor quality. We have a sunny day here today so when outside to take a picture of a hawk's in a tree nextdoor hoping more light would improve the zoom & cropping the photo but it still sucks. I'm guessing it's operator error or put yes on recommending but I'm still disappointed in this camera.

    It reached my expectations according to the price. It was a little bit slow to process the image and go to the next picture, but overall was pretty good! The only thing I did not like it, was the fact that I bought it for my mom and she does not speak in English. The Sony camer had only three languages: Spanish, French and English.

    Well, it's cute, but not for me. Feels too fragile, too small for easy handling for adult hands. Buttons so small. Unfortunately the first day I had it the door to battery broke OFF..made of plastic and very tiny. That was all I needed to return it. It was refurbished.. maybe someone else dropped it.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend
