Customer Reviews 

 

I bought this camera to take pictures of a trip to South America first Brazil Carnaval then to Chile Lakes Region. I didn't have much time to learn the camera. For a pocket zoom this camera is excellent. What I especially liked:

1. Menu system is easy, very intuitive. No fighting with menus.
2. Sharp zoom lens wide angle to 20X.
3. Image stabilization works well Hand held pics at full zoom come out sharp.
4. There are numerous shooting modes but I only used 2: Program (automatic) mode and manual mode. Most of the pics were taken in Manual mode. I would set ISO and rotate the exposure knob until the screen showed proper exposure. Pics came out true to screen display.
5. Camera has fine (f) and superfine (sf) jpeg modes. I imagined that SF was better than F so i took all pics and in SF mode. Pics were about 5 MByte each pic.
6. Good low light pics. For me It is hard to tell the difference between ISO 800 and 3200. No difference at all ISO 100 to 800.

Summary; Pictures were spectacular! Very sharp colors vibrant. I used the 20X zoom for pics of individual dancers in the sambadroma and a the wide angle for overall shots.
