Next best thing to a SLR camera.

 

Wanted a camera with SLR power and picture quality but with the convience and ease of a digital point and shoot. It has a lot of features including panoramic , sports mode and more to play with. It has a comfortable grip with rubber texture to prevent...

Mega zoom, easy to use, sharp pics and a lot of bang for the buck

Excellent camera for intermediate to advanced

 

It's an excellent general use camera. Both for event photos and landscape shots. All the features allow you to customize your photos so there is hardly any editing once put on the computer.About me... Photo enthusiast

Picture quality and zoom are both above and beyond

comes stock with a short life battery and some controls are tricky
