    This camera is amazing in many ways but for the type of content I need to shoot, it is not at all what I could use. My mistake in the lack of research. It performs very poorly in lowlight. If you know a think for two about cameras, then you know why. I did not check all of the specs before purchasing. I have since returned the camera but, this is a small issue that won’t affect most people. It all depends on the style of content you are creating and where.
