    I will say, it is a great camera with a good concept. The one draw back was the lack of flash and the photos weren't as high quality as I would expect. Depending on the use you want it for, it could work. I work in real estate and it didn't feel worth the money, I ended up returning this and focusing my sights on an overall better one.
