Questions & Answers

Shopper : how is it with fast action sports shots? Continous shutter speed?DAVID M : I have not used this camera for mulitple shot high speed photography, but I can tell you for the price, you can't beat all the features & it takes beautiful photos. I was a professional photographer for about 30 yrs & really love this camera for everyday picture taking & especially traveling. Some of the features I really like are the 26x optical zoom & ultra wide angle lens; square format so you don't have to turn the camera for vertical shots; 4AA battery feature very convenient & rechargables work; takes up to 64gb card so you can take long videos with it; many shooting modes depending on what you want to do; top rated if you do a google search. Hope this helps.ANDREW R : As with most cameras of this type, fast action shooting performance is likely to be disappointing. Point-n-shoot cameras are not really good performers in this regard. The burst rate for this camera has not been specified by the manufacturer.
Margo J : Does this camera actually have a rear touch screen? Display model I saw did not have a touch screen. Would like to know exactly what I am getting before I purchase.KEN T : The camera does not have a rear touch screen. I highly recommend this camera as it has done everything I wanted it to do. Very easy to operate. I saw one review that mentioned batteries ran down very fast but I have not had that problem. Good luck.ANDREW R : Unfortunately I believe that the touch screen reference is in error. This unit does not appear to be equipped with a touch screen.
Shopper : I just bought this camera and have a difficult time taking clear pics of my little kids. If they aren't perfectly still, the pic is blurry. Can someone please let me know if they have figured out the key?NANCY H : On the mode dial, rotate to SCENE and choose CHILDREN. or On the mode dial, rotate to SMART AUTO and choose ACTIONPRANAY G : switch to P (program auto mode) on the top dial and set shutter speed as fast as you can (max on this model is 1/2000 sec. You will also need a lot of light, so there's a better chance of getting quick snaps out in daylight or with flash compared to inside room or at night. If it still doesn't work, consider purchasing a camera with larger aperture like a canon s100 or panasonic lx5.

Great for $$

I like the camera over all , as with anything skill and out put grow with use. micro phone could be better when taking vids . however the smart photo when used properly yields good photo results, flash seems to improve results even when not needed . I bought mine used and it has worked fine even when abused ...

Great still photos

The photos on this camera are stunning. The video quality was a little disappointing to me, particularly under indoor lighting. It is very easy to use and I LOVE the fact that it uses double A batteries. I have rechargeable batteries for this camera. I have had other cameras that needed a specific charger and I always had trouble keeping track of it.

Great camers for the price

16.2 mp produces geat photos and even high def video with sound. Bought as a birthday gift for my daughter and she loved it. Only thing that could have made the camera easier to use would have been the inclusion of written operating instructions. It has taken some time to figure out what funtions it has and how to operate them.

Great Zoom-In Features

The camera itself has a good zoom-in features and takes a great picture however you need to use the flash at all times to capture a great picture. The flash needs to recharge at least 20-30 seconds and by the time it recharged you missed the shot that you wanted! The camera is bad in low light scenery, the video however is great! I have no complaint about the video. Overall, I believe the camera will be a great present for teens who wants an affordable camera.
