Great Camera for those who wish to learn a little about photography and advanced users

Author's Rating: 5/5 stars  

Pros: Great pictures, easy to use and because it’s digital you will snap away!

Cons: 3X zoom somewhat limiting, possible to turn on with cap on, not great..you learn.

Would buy again...EXCEPT see caution. I don’t miss the 10X zoom too much and this camera allows me to have taken some shots that look like pro quality. Read More
