  • Manual mode
  • image capture
  • Video shooting easy to engage
  • Outstanding editing suite
  • Full 1080p 5.0 Touchscreen is bright and clear
  • 4K and 1080p HD video options

Cons:
  • Auto Focus not always accurate
  • Auto Exposure less accurate in high contrast shooting conditions
  • Noisy Images in all but bright lighting
  • Digital Zoom noise
