    This camera is awesome. I love it and how simple it is to use. Its a bit small for my hands but not a deal breaker. Overall budget friendly for a beginner like myself.

    Camera quality is beautiful but battery life is not the best. You can't shoot for more than half hour without needing to charge battery. Even if you have multiple batteries.

    This little camera is fantastic, its light, charges relatively quickly, and has a great lens for the price. I would recommend getting an ND filter just in case anyone shoots manual and wants to commit to a specific shutter speed

      Thank you for your positive feedback! We're glad to hear that you're enjoying your camera and find it fantastic. It's great to know that it charges quickly and offers great value for the price. Your recommendation to use an ND filter is also appreciated. ND filters are indeed valuable accessories for cameras, as they allow you to control the amount of light entering the lens.

    It’s cool if you are just wanting to pick up the camera and shoot. Factory settings are superior for beginners. I love the simplicity and ease of use. It’s very light, even with the gimbal attached. There are some technical difficulties with the app and connection issues not sticking.
