  • Excellent camera for a beginner and advanced begi
    Verified BuyerReviewed by mallorquin - 28 décembre 2014

    I am an ex-professional photographer and all my equipment is Canon, I bought this particular camera after a lot of research for my teenage grandaughter as a gift. I configured and tested the camera prior of given it to her and I was extremely impresed with the quality and all the features that it has. I spend an hour with my granddaughter going over all the features and another hour shooting pictures and videos, by the next day she was using the camera as if she had it for a long time to include many of the special effects features. I would recommend this camera very highly for the quality and how easy it is to use.

  • Simple and versatile - exceeded my expectations
    Verified BuyerReviewed by GMan - 7 août 2014

    I bumped up to this model for the features and have been very pleasantly surprised by all that this camera can do. It's extended zoom is very good and produces picture clarity. Great for business or the casual photographer. I anticipate as I become more familiar & comfortable with this model that the feature menu intrusions will go away ... in other words, I believe unexpected intrusions of the feature menu are more related to my skill with the camera than the product itself. Overall, I rate this camera as excellent!
