Disappointing Digital Camera - Do Not Buy

After I put this camera to the test, I was thoroughly disappointed. The image quality was mediocre at best, and the focusing was slow and inaccurate. The user interface is cumbersome and not user-friendly. The only positive aspect is its compact size and sleek design. Overall, I would not recommend this product to anyone in the market for a new digital camera. Stick to trusted electronics brands for your photography needs.

Pros
  • High-quality image sensor
Cons
  • Limited battery life

Used for a month but I like it

Only used for about a month but I really like it so far. The compact design is great, the pictures are excellent and I love the tilting screen. There are many modes that I don't use often (all scene modes), but all priority modes are ones I use frequently and they work as they should. I have a Fotodiox lens adapter and I use my PK lenses with this camera without any problems! So far I like this camera but next month's trip will be the real test.

Pros
  • Excellent design
Cons
  • Almost everything is fine

Extreme amateurs love this camera

Serious photographers please ignore this review. This will make you angry. This is for fans and soccer moms. I'm by no means a photographer, but I thought we should have a better camera than our phones for our baby's upcoming birth. I opened the box yesterday and charged it up to take some pics this afternoon to test it out. All I can say is WOW. I shoot in auto mode and they look just as good as some of my friends' DSLR photos. Clear focused foreground with blurred background etc. I got good…

Pros
  • Cool
Cons
  • Has been damaged
