I love this camera. I'm a self-proclaimed amateur photographer and without even knowing how to navigate the camera I was still able to get my bearings. It is very comfortable and the quality is top notch. I would definitely recommend this camera to anyone but I have to admit that this is the perfect first camera for people looking to start a hobby/passion/career in photography. I personally bought it for my travels. It is the perfect size as it fits in a handbag or coat/sweater. I already have a Canon DSLR but after traveling all over Asia with it I wanted something more compact but with better photo quality than what I can take with my phone. This camera does.
