Great pictures but it is impossible to see what you are taking a picture of! When its a bright day the sun reflects your own relection onto teh LCD screen- so i was just basically shooting at what i thougth was the object and crossing my fingers. Maybe a good camera for somewhere with not a lot of sun- or indoor shots. But if you live some where sunny dont bother! you need a view finder.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hi JulieG,
We suggest adjusting the Monitor Brightness of the camera to Sunny when using it outside. This will help you see the subject better using the LCD display.

A viewfinder and 4k 30p video. 1080 120p would be nice too.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I bought this a little over 3 months ago and now all of a sudden it stopped working and won't turn on. I use the camera not to often for the battery to have died already.

Spent hours with Sony online, and at BestBuy.
Just a complete waste of my time. Not worth the effort.
This is probably my last Sony product ever.

I have nine wall sized prints made (at or over 36" X 25") from the camera-am running out of wall space. Great enlargements!
