Advantages: Sharp, great outdoors photos, fast

Disadvantages: hard to use in low light

My first proper camera.

My old one was a 2mp fujifilm, so maybe bear that in mind when reading this! Although I did a TON of research before spending all of that money!

I am studying to be a graphic designer, I can't spend too much money, but I needed a camera to take decent pics, I chose this one because the quality seemed almost as good as a DLR, which costs a lot more!

So far I've found it quick, easy to pick up, although there's still lots of options for me to learn, it's macro is pretty good! The main thing I have found is that the photos are very sharp!!!

The bad things are that it struggles a bit in low light, I am not sure how badly compared to other cameras though, I think they all do a bit! Also don't be expecting this to fit into any kind of coat pocket! Though there's a neck strap provided, which works fine!

I have found the massive zoom more useful than I thought! I have many beautiful wildlife shots because of this!

Also a tip is that you should always zoom in a little to get the best picture, as at the lowest zoom it is not quite as sharp!

Summary: Great!!!
