I love the camera! Other reviews have mentioned that it does feel a little cheap, and I would say I agree in part with that. However, that’s not the purpose of this camera! I’ve had so much fun snapping quick pics on adventures with my family and friends while being able to stay in the moment without any screen, and the pictures mostly come out surpassing my expectations.
Originally I was going to return it. In my head the price wasn’t work what I received, and I wasn’t convinced about the little noise it made every time you took a photo, but I decided against returning it and honestly I don’t regret it. In my defense, this arrived right before the first snow in 6 years and there was something so wholesome and fun about being able to follow my dog around the park and snap worry free photos of her enjoying her first snow.
I’ve been keeping it in my car and whenever I see something I think is neat, I’ll turn it on and snap a quick photo. It’s really a camera of moments. And there’s something exciting about not actually knowing how the pictures turned out until you plug in the memory card.
I bought this as a Christmas gift to myself. If it’s within your budget, I’d say go for it. It’s worth the little moments of joy.
