This camera takes awesome pictures and is very easy to use. Zoom lens is wonderful. It has a bunch of settings for things like fireworks, faces and action shots (see pic)The only thing I don't like is the lens cap. It is not attached with a string and it is hard to take off. It ends up popping out of your hand. I feel like I'm definitely going to lose it. Other than that, this is a great camera that gives you the quality of DSLR without having to carry a bunch of lenses.

Upgraded my Olympus camera to this one and could not be happier! The pictures come out amazing. With the eye-fi card, it makes transferring photos super easy. There are some slight learning curves but it is a great investment! My only complain is that the lens cap does not have a string attached to the camera so it might get lost eventually if you don't hold onto it.

I had cataract surgery a month ago. I bought this camera before driving from Alaska to Nevada. This camera is absolutely amazing in so many conditions. Crisp clarity from shooting from a moving vehicle shooting scenery, roaming animals, infrared night pictures, family face recognition & outstanding bird shots. This camera is also outstanding price point.

Many appreciate its lightweight design and strong low-light performance, while some find the size a bit larger than desired and express concerns about the lens cap's design. The camera's price point and features are also frequently praised.
