I’m interested in buying this camera, and was wondering if anyone has any reviews on it? Or any suggestions for similar cameras of about the same price? (around $270) All opinions are welcomed
Thanks!
Personally I would NOT want this camera because it has NO manual controls – it looks nice, but is a VERY basic camera.
Without manual controls you are very VERY limited in what you can do, and very limited in how much you can learn from and grow with the camera. It also not possibly to attach a decent external flash, so all you’ll ever have is that very inadequate little thing on the camera.
If you’re happy to forever stay on Auto, take simple little snapshots and let the camera decide what to do, then you’ll probably be happy enough with it, especially if you intend to only take photos in excellent light conditions – they’ll turn out quite well then.
If you want to learn, improve and get creative, then this is not the right tool for you. You need something with more options and more controls.
I suggest you read a few reviews….. they don’t seem all that good for this camera.
My personal choice would be a Canon Powershot SX30IS, but it is more expensive.
