Love it!

I am so glad I found this camera! I had received this exact model as a gift a year ago and then had my apartment burglarized and it was stolen. Every other point-and-shoot I looked at just didn't quite get me everything this camera does. I have a DSLR but wanted another, smaller camera for those times that lugging around my big camera wasn't practical. The controls on this camera are easy to use and it provides manual controls for those that want to get creative - the main reason I loved it! I was thrilled when I finally found it again on this site. You can't go wrong with this camera!

Great camera!

This was a Christmas gift for my (now ten year old) son last year. He has made some really nice images with this little camera!! He also enjoys the video capability. I found that it shoots better images by setting the exposure compensation to -1/3 stop and leaving that as the default... I would recommend this camera for kids or for anyone who wants a great little camera for a really low price. I paid under $100.00 for it at Adorama before last Christmas. AND, it was the one present he was most excited about and is still using!! ;-)

Very compact

This is a nice camera to take along when you don't want to bring the full arsenal of camera and lenses. It is great for snapshots of family or events. It is small enough to fir in your pocket even when in a case.

Great little camera for the price....

This a great camera for using some really great snapshots. For those who know a few things about cameras, it does have a bit of flexibility when adjusting the settings yourself. You are able to change the ISO and evaluated metering and the ability to use flash or not. I also love that it goes down to a 2.8 shutter speed if it is needed.

Excellent Upgrade over A95

Bought this as an upgrade for my technically challenged mother. The full auto feature is not as good as I had hoped for indoor pictures, but it is a fantastic upgrade from the A95 model.

Stylish, fun to use camera

My 14-year-old daughter received this camera as a gift for Christmas. She LOVES it! She takes it to friends' houses, traveling, and takes pictures of family at home. She likes how it takes good pictures. She also says it is a strong camera as she has dropped it a few times without any apparent damage. She wqas able to se it almost immediately, right out of the box as it has intuitive controls. She has taken video with it and seems happy with the quality.
