Overall it's not bad, but I expected more.

In short, this is a budget digital camera of the 2022 model, to which they screwed a crazy zoom. It is not so expensive abroad. Our outbids will not yield a single. In 2022, it is expensive for pampering. Soon the price tag will crawl up to a thousand bucks. Wow. Shoot only in series, holding your breath. It is categorically impossible to indulge or give a person who does not understand photographic equipment. It will be very painful from dark and blurry photos.

Pros
  • The most powerful honest zoom Good video quality Stabilization works great for such a 2022mm focal length. distances Raw stretches well.
Cons
  • Image quality for Instagram only A flimsy lens, zooming this pipe back and forth is scary. It seems as if it was assembled from a bunch of gears of the cheapest sample, so they chirp and vibrate there. My device left under warranty in Hong Kong. I stopped working out the stabilizer, the focus began to smear. The camera is all made of dubious plastic. It takes a long time to write files to a USB flash drive. Even at speed. He shot a series, and you can go smoke while he writes down seven photos on the card. Terribly annoying. Terrible light sensitivity of the sensor. You can only shoot comfortably in sunlight. In cloudy weather - God forbid you take a breath during the shooting, everything will be blurry.

Does not meet my expectations, it was not worth buying.

TOTAL VIDEO If you take it for video shooting, then with this focal length and for this money there are no alternatives. For distant objects of nature: birds are animals while they are slow or sitting still, then it will do, as soon as the stabilizer runs sharply it will ruin everything - it’s better to just turn it off! (yes, I tried all 4 stabilizer modes in all the same). For video, this is a very conditionally suitable product, even if you shoot from a tripod with a "floating" head. I will…

Pros
  • 1. Good video camera for stable scenes. 2. 4K
Cons
  • 1. Like a camera - G! (excuse me), not bad as a video camera. 2. The stabilizer in video mode only works for stable scenes and when using a tripod. It doesn’t work with fast wiring - it constantly “slips”, I don’t know how else to describe it - that is, you drive everything stably and suddenly the picture slips back sharply - for example, you see to the left and once a second the picture flies to the right. 3. There are no restrictions on focusing - for example, focusing on objects from 10, 50, 100m and further, and auto focus in the body range is weak and strives to "move" to nearby objects (I understand that good AF cannot be done for this price, but it was possible to help with such a crutch as a limiter).

I have not tried RAW mode yet, but with video in 3840x2160 mode, you can print photos from each frame. Pros: Image quality, zoom, excellent image stabilizer, convenient manual focusing, convenient flash, many settings, the ability to control zoom and shutter from your smartphone. Its cons: There are no instructions in 2022, and you have to dig into the settings to understand. what does this or that icon on the monitor mean.
