Rated 3 out of 5

Couldn't get used to electric viewfinder

I needed a back up camera to take photos of rugged areas and sometimes wet places. I figured this camera would do the trick, but I could not get used to the electric viewfinder--seemed like I was watching a baby TV.

Disappointed with electric viewfinder

I bought this camera because it is a lot smaller than my DSLR cameras, and I thiught it would be handy when fishing or hiking in the outdoors. I just could not get use to the electric view finder-to me it seemed like viewing a small tv.

Great camera for the money

About as good as you can get before taking the leap to the digital SLR. Will take good picture without lugging a lense or the expense of having multiple lenses. Video was great coming from a camera that just makes the deal sweeter. The refurbished looked perfect and worked perfectly out of the box. Camera was really easy to use out of the box. Easy to figure out the basics but the book show just how many features this camera has. Only 2 small dissipointment it eats batteries,which is typical of a megazoom but would loved to have a rechargable pack that fit the camera. 2 Hard to focus up on small things like tiny flowers or bees things along that line. Would give it a 4.5 overall.
