Poor Quality Camera Disappoints

I was excited to try this camera out but unfortunately was let down. As a result of my tests, I determined that the image quality was subpar and the zoom feature was not as effective as advertised. The camera itself felt cheaply made and not durable. While it is affordable, I would recommend investing in a higher quality electronics brand for your photography needs.

Pros
  • Affordable
Cons
  • Poor image quality and cheaply made.

In the middle, this camera works, but only for my You Tube videos.

I got this because the cheap Sony I got went from sharp to blurry during my You Tube video. It takes wonderful photos in my opinion, at least they look great on both screens, a little bright eye with flash but that's to be expected. The flash is on the left or right so as not to accidentally cover it with your hand, but be careful when fixing it. The video was grainy and not great on a setting below HD. HD on YouTube takes too long to load, so I don't use it. The grainy video is the main reason

Pros
  • Smart Auto intelligently chooses the right settings based on 32 predefined shooting situations
Cons
  • Big and chunky

Latency issues between shots

I ended up returning the camera due to camera issues, but here are the comments I received after using it for a while: Pros: + Decent performance given the price + compact size, very similar to Canon ELPH series + good image quality. Better than my smartphone, which was one of my main desires + Rechargeable and removable battery Cons: Extremely minor and probably not worth mentioning, but my previous Canon came with a small piece of plastic to tighten/loosen the loop on the lanyard that…

Pros
  • ECO mode to reduce power consumption
Cons
  • Very expensive
