    This camera is definitely a great starter vlogging camera. Theres a few minor things that i wish were different. Like, the fuzzy wind sock could be more solid instead of (hairy?) The battery doesnt last that long, but thats to be expected being a small camera and battery. Last thing would be price. It could be priced at $300 or $350 for what it is. But, the quality is excellent unless youre doing product videos. But, with the quality i can see why the price. All in all its an excellent camera and all the small things that could be different doesnt warrant 4 stars!!!!

    I wanted to find an affordable vlogging camera, so I could stop using my phone, and that’s what I got. The video is clear and the sound is good. My only problem is that the battery dies quickly.

    I absolutely LOVE this camera! I am no camera expert by any means, but I thoroughly did my research before purchasing this camera. I am a YouTuber (channel: Natural NeNe) and I was looking for a camera to mainly record my videos with. I wanted to upgrade from my iPhone 11 to a camera and this one is perfect! I don't understand why so many people are against this camera, but I personally love it! The video quality is what I was looking for and it is AMAZING! It is sharp, clear and the camera stays in focus on a product or even on myself. The picture quality is also great for my thumbnails and just for pictures in general. The slots for the battery and SD card are perfect and they fit well. All of the controls such as the on/off button, record button, and picture button are easy to access on the screen or manually on the camera. I have had this camera for almost 2 weeks and I am already used to it. I cannot wait to start vlogging and recording with my new camera! I also highly recommend this camera for YouTubers or for anyone who wants to have good picture and video quality for memories.

    As a first-time camera user, when I found this camera I immediately was drawn to it because of it's reviews and how affordable it was! When I became interested in purchasing a camera, I knew I wanted one just like this with all of it's great features. This camera is great for filming every-day life with family and friends and great for snapshots! I also love the Creators' App, it is an app that allows you to quickly transport your film/photos via bluetooth to your phone with ease. If you are first time camera buyer or want a camera to film everyday adventures and life with those you love, buy this!
