Great little camera.
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great little camera. Needs help definitely with stabilizing with software when your walking around. But for vlogging it’s perfect. Don’t buy this thinking your making a movie with it because that’s not what it’s for.

- Cons mentioned:Zoom
No real zoom feature
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Within 5 minutes of taking this camera out of the box I discovered that the lens has no zoom. It has a digital zoom that barely zooms in. My 12 year old camera from 2012 is 10x better than this and was half the price. I spent a lot of time researching this camera, reading over the specs, reviews and watching videos about it and somehow missed this detail. The price is outrageous for the fact that this doesn't have a lens that can actually zoom in - what's the point of even buying a traditional style camera without this feature? You might as well get a webcam or just keep using your phone. So disappointed. I am sending this back and hoping for a refund. The worst thing is that if I lived in a location that wasn't in the middle of nowhere I could have tried a floor model and figured this out in a matter of seconds before I made such a poor purchase. So, if you're looking for a camera that actually has zoom or the features of a real camera look elsewhere.

Camera stolen and refund refusal from Best Buy
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I never got my camera, Best Buy used a third-party carrier w/o my knowledge. I submitted the video footage of my camera being stolen by the door dash driver but Best Buy has refused to refund me or replace my camera. I will never make a purchase here ever again! Horrible customer service! And a lack of compassion for customers.

Not worth it
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.For the price, it’s ok. I just think it’s not as good as my older camera. Influencers lie about these. It doesn’t hold good battery. I found myself charging it constantly and was like yeah no. I had a better chance with Sony Cybershot. Currently pawning it right now
