Great camera for its size

A cemera it is easy to use

"image stabilization works very well. Image quality is very good, in normal operation or macro. However, the auto-focus seems do not work very well, even the object has good contrast and it is bright enough. Another noticeable issue is the long interval between each shot when in non-burst mode. Still a good choice in this price level..." Read Full Review »
