Good quality pics, but slow
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The 1st day I used my new Sony camera, I loved it. Tood about 140 pics at the beach of waves, sand, wind surfers, etc. Loaded the pics to my laptop, perfect. The 2nd day however, the ocean air formed a film on the lens, and my next 100 pics were foggy. I attempted to gently clean the lens (owners manual does not give guidance on cleaning the lens) with a little bit of alcohol, and now the lens is ruined. The lens does not have a proper seal (either a design defect or manufacturing defect), and moisture and debris seeped in and the camera is useless. Going back to Best Buy to see what they can do to resolve... stay tuned.

Good, but...
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this camera for my wife, and it served us well for years. But eventually it started having issues where it would shut itself down. Not sure why, maybe a Battery issue? Unfortunately, she lost it, so we were unable to determine what the problem was
I would recommend this to a friendeasy, not complicated. nice pictures
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I wanted a camera that would just take pictures and maybe video's.
I would recommend this to a friendOld iPhones are better cameras
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Got this for my 14 year old daughter to take on a trip to Washington D.C. She took a few shots then stopped using it. I thought maybe she just had a bad setting and tried it myself, and found out why. The LCD view finder is just bad, controls are poorly located, and worse of all there's a 2 sec delay after you click the shutter until you can take another photo. For a 20 mp camera with a Ziess lens it takes mediocre pictures at best. Compared to my old iPhone 5S and the phone beat it hands down on picture quality.
