Simply fabulous

I haven't had a camera in a handful of years, so when I got this one as a gift, I was somewhat overwhelmed. Technology has changed a ton since I last had a camera. But I found this model fairly easy to navigate and use, play around with and use. I confess, I haven't yet tried the more advanced bells and whistles, like e-mailing or posting photos or HD videos. But I plan to, once I learn *how* to do so. The ease of use is good, and everything is pretty easy to figure out, especially if you're just basically technically-inclined. The megapixels and zoom are amazing, things that used to cost much more in a camera in years past. There are options to edit and tweak photos, which has been fun trying out. Recent family gathering pictures turned out very nice! There's a 3" screen, and no viewfinder, but I have adjusted fine. The screen is not touch-activated, but again, that's not been a problem.
I have been very satisfied with my new camera. I'm loving it! To boot, it fits very well into my purse, even with a case. I look forward to further exploring all of the features and finally using them, aside from the standard photo taking that I have been doing. I'd recommend this model to anyone, especially those who are basic/average photographers.
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Realistic color, Lightweight, very portable
I would recommend this to a friend!

Good Point and Shoot Camera

This is a good camera to carry around as it is quite compact with a nice big 3" display. The picture quality is good but it is sometimes slow to take the picture. Wi-Fi was pretty simple to set up. In automatic mode it will copy the pictures to my phone where I can upload them to different social media sites. It would be nice to have an external battery charger for a second battery but you can recharge from any USB jack. Face detection is good but I havenlt tried any of the other features yet.
I decided to buy a camera the day before I left for a vacation to Brazil. I couldn't afford anything to fancy, but this camera surpassed my expectations. It took great pictures and I liked the fact that i could upload them straight to my social media sites. The camera was sometimes slow at taking a picture, but it was a great camera at a great value. I'm happy with my purchase.
The cuality of the pictures are realy poor. The LCD image is unclear I don´t realy know what´s wrong whith the focus......terrible!
Cons: Poor quality, Not high def, Did not meet expectations
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Great camera for traveler

I purchased this camera just prior to leaving on a trip to France. I didn't want to carry my digital Canon camera due to the weight and security reasons. With very little time invested in learning the nuances of the camera, I made the trip and found the camera to be ideal for traveling. The zoom is great and it's easy to take photos and small videos and email them home on the spot! It was easy to maneuver the settings and the quality of the pictures is fantastic.
This is the one of the best Smart camera that I ever had. Simple and elegant.
Pros: Bright display, Inexpensive
I would recommend this to a friend!

Lots of bells and whistles that are not user friendly. Getting used to photos. Seems bad with no flash but to bright with flash. Trouble figuring out how to post photos wi-fi
