I have been using the camera for 2 years. During this time, there was not a single failure. Of the advantages, a good autofocus system should be noted (it catches well, and there are many points). Both photos and videos are top notch. In low light, it sometimes blurs the focus, but this largely depends on the optics (it is much more common with budget models than with Elks). Not cheap, of course, but not too expensive either. Recommended for beginners.
