It was a reasonable purchase, will order more.

I would like to begin to praise this model, but I'll start with the main drawback. These are batteries. In vain, manufacturers saved on a normal battery, I would not mind overpaying an extra 1,000, but AA batteries are not always good. Those that were in the kit were enough for about 65 photographs, with a flash I shot about 10 times. I had to buy, as advised, special rechargeable batteries with a charger, which cost a lot, but I hope that they stand. So far I have bought one pair of batteries, but it is advisable to buy a second one, it will not be superfluous in an emergency. Still not a drawback, rather a trifle, but it is quite difficult to pick up a bag-case. There are branded ones, but they are expensive (cheaper options are rare). Well, now I will praise. I was very pleased with the presence of a variety of shooting modes: manual, automatic and several more separate modes (in one you can change the shutter speed, in the other aperture, and in completely manual everything you want). Many filters and special shooting modes from fisheye to shooting with color replacement. Such a device is suitable for everyone, whether you are a beginner or a pro: it will be easy for beginners to learn, while the pros are suitable for walking, where it is not always possible to grab a DSLR. The pictures are very high quality, the zoom is excellent (you can turn off the digital zoom in the menu so as not to interfere). In general, despite the bright drawback - a very high-quality soap dish for its price category.

Pros
  • Image quality, lots of filters, easy controls.
Cons
  • Batteries.
