Great camera for the price!

This was a wonderful buy for me! It was fairly priced for one, and it small, sleek and stylish. It doesn't take up much space, and it is very light without feeling cheap. The screen is bright, and the different shooting options are very easy to navigate and set.
Pros:
  • Easy to use
  • Good Price
  • Easy to understand different options
Cons:
  • Shows finger prints well
