Sharp, vivid photos are easy with this camera. It works like a point and shoot. And it can also be used like a manual camera, but not so easily. There are so many functions possible that It can take a while to learn them. The owner manual will be your friend. Video mode is extremely simple. There is one button to push to get the video camera started, and the rest is automatic. This pocket-sized camera meets my needs perfectly.

Controlling aperture for portraits is difficult to master. I had thought that the camera would have done that for me. The WIFI doesn't work with a Mac computer. One must upload the pics from the camera to a site with the camera's WIFI and then download the pics with Mac's web browser. Bluetooth doesn't work with a Mac either. It's a nice camera but if you own a Mac pc, this is not going to work well. I am disappointed because there was no full disclosure by the manufacturer and that is why I gave it only 2-stars.

I have always been a huge fan of Canon Camera's. This Camera is a very nice camera, but the Mic is garbage. Very low tones with base sound. If taking Video like I do, you will want to keep that in mind before purchasing. I absolutely love the Camera, but hate the Mic. I can correct the Camera's sound in my editing software, so it's not a huge issue, however, without the software to correct the audio,..you will be left with terrible audio in a video.

Pluses are a very long zoom. Negatives are a lack of a view finder, so harder to use like a camera in low light, bright sun, etc. Would much prefer a lighter weight camera for point and shoot. I guess for the narcissists the "selfie" folding screen might be useful, but for serious photography not really as useful as one that can take shots over the crowd, etc.

This is a super bargain considering its features (40x telephoto, etc), ultra small size, and outstanding quality. I've packed my bulky Canon SLR away. This is now my go-to camera!
