Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great cameraThe features on this camera are great for what I am using it for. The buttons are not difficult to work with (which I have had problems with on other cameras). Overall, I love the features of this camera.I will say setting up the wifi was aggravating. The instructions did not work, and I am lucky that I have some knowledge to make it happen. The app for the phone in the instructions is not the app that I ended up using; the way I had to get it working on my laptop was nowhere near what the instructions said.Now that it's set up, it's not a problem. I love the fact that there are no cords (especially since I tend to lose them all the time). Overall great product for a basic photographer!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Zoom zoom babyI've owned this camera for seven months now and used it on multiple hikes and camping trips. Taken excellent pictures of the moon and far off places miles away. The wi-fi makes it easy to transfer photos to a smartphone for fast sharing. I've never owned a camera like this. Even my mother was jealous with her older Rebel. 9/10 because i wanted a camera to take pictures of stars and the milky way but after traveling into the boonies, which is easy here in Montana, I couldn't even get one star to show up let alone the milky way which was Very visible. AND not as versatile as an SLR. but i'm a noob and people love my pictures anyway so i'm very happy.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Fuzzy FocusI bought this camera 2 months ago and I wanted for Zoom to take pictures of birds when you zoom out it takes forever to focus and by that time the subject is gone I would like it to have a sports mode but it does not it needs a better focus when zooming out I will be looking for a different camera because this is not the kind that I want that I have to wait for it to focus then lose the subject.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from tough cameraBought this refurb for 175. It's took a beating for over a year been rained in dropped' not the greatest for action shots. For a great beginner camera this is fine . I own 2 1 primary 1 backup. replacement batteries are reasonable on amazon. for a starter its great but the video is good also . for low light or night shots ok .

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Quit Working Within YearThis camera was purchased by my husband as a late Christmas gift last year. It quit working about a week after Halloween this year. So, after 10 months it is now a paperweight. I have submitted a support request in hopes they correct this issue as I did love my camera. It took great pictures... but I do not feel like a ten month life span is worth the price...

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Love this camera!I have been wanting a better camera for several years now and received this as a birthday gift from my husband this year. The zoom is amazing, and the clarity and detail of the pictures are astounding for a point and click camera. I've yet to have time to explore the manual settings. But I am sold on this camera! I especially love the Wi-fi share feature as I download my photos right after I take them onto my cell phone or home phone within seconds.
