I am 52 years old and never interested in purchasing state of the art equipment because I remain"old school" and not very savvy on new technology. However this camera is not at all complicated that it prevents me from learning how to use it. Its sleek design and features makes me WANT to learn how to use its multitude of features.
This is a great camera that is packed with features. Picture quality is outstanding. I own a Galaxy SIII phone and downloaded the remote camera view finder app. Its easy to use and works every time. Its nice that I can be included in the photos too without having to run after setting the self timer like my old camera. My friends cant believe that the camera can work from the phone. its great that I can share photos from the camera with wifi too.
Great camera for indoor&outdoor photography. Amazing features, easy to handle "smart" devise. Anyone will enjoy quality of priceless precious moments of life. It has been Blessing from God to our family.
The flash is not real auto since it needs to manually press a button to pop-up the flash to use. Video recording is blurring and slowly focus when zooming out or in during recording. I 've not seen any of these on my previous cameras. Of course, some people may argue that "I got for what I pay", and I don't think it's true because my previous cameras were not expensive either.
Pros: Inexpensive, Lightweight, easy to use
Cons: Did not meet expectations, blurry video if zooming while recording, flash get stuck often
I purchased this camera to replace a stolen camera right before my trip to Europe. I liked the features it offered, so I went for it. The camera has a very poor reaction time. I was on a tour bus and missed several good photo opportunities because the camera wouldn't focus quick enough, and several times it wouldn't snap the picture when I pushed down the button. It was very frustrating. Another thing is the battery life is absolutely atrocious! I would be on a full day tour, but the battery was dead by noon. I ended up taking pictures with my iPhone (better quality too). I wish I could return it, but the company I bought it from has a 15-day return policy... My trip was for 11 days. Needless to say from the time I purchased it to the time I returned, it was well over 15 days. I would definitely not recommend this product to a friend. Which is sad because I love Samsung products.
Pros: Bright display, decent pictures
Cons: Poor quality, Too big, Did not meet expectations, poor battery life, terrible reaction time
I bought this camera for it's features which I was pleased however, I had trouble turning the camera on. About 3 out of 4 attempts it would open and then turn off. It kept telling me to take the battery out to re-install it and if it continued return it. I gave it about two weeks but was tired of missing shots. Purchased a more known named product in the camera world.
