Great camera for the price

I was looking for a good quality digital camera to take pictures of my daughter. This camera is great for everyday use. While it is a little light on features and settings, it is easy to use and produces great pictures.

superb secondary camera

For the price and quality this camera is hard to beat. I purchased a much nicer camera for her hobby, but I wanted to get her a knock-around for lack of a better term. Since purchased, this camera has proved very durable and takes pictures well worth the price I paid. Trying to get a steady picture and some fuzzyness around objects could be my only complaints. Great buy.

Amazing!

We own a small business & need a camera to take picture of our products. This camera is AMAZING! The quality of the pictures are above and beyond what we expected. For the price we thought it would suffice our needs but didn't expect it to be as great as it has turned out to be. The zoom quality is incredible and we have yet to find an environment that this camera cannot adapt to. HIGHLY recommended!

Great secondary camera

Overall I am thrilled with this purchase. I got lot of camera for the money. Easy to program. Great built in features. I don't give it all fives because the battery life is not that great. Definitely buy a second battery. Even then you have to charge the battery via the camera. Separate charger would be have been better. Also because all of the programming is done via the screen and not a wheel making changes is not as fast. But overall this is an excellent camera for the price.
