DMC-TS4 3 months out

Kayaking and on the water activities was the prime reason for the purchase of this camera. Solid and fits well in the hand, A little heavy though. Rock Solid pictures both long and short distances. Panning and zoom work without a hitch. Many options on this camera I do not have on my SLR
