Pros

The only complaint i have is there is no battery charger. I just wish it had wifi just so downloading would be a little easier. More user memory settings.

Even fully zoomed in at the insane 50x optical zoom this camera takes great, clear pictures. It has great features in the menu settings and the 50x zoom is a must for those that are looking for dslr quality without having to lug around different lense... Read More

The zoom is strong enough that i'd recommend using a tripod at the highest zoom settings to help steady your shot. The gold automatic setting stabilizes the images and they come out great. The burst mode takes 10 shots at machine gun speeds. Makes pho... Read More

The menu layout is very intuitive. The ability to manually or automatically set parameters is amazing. More features would be handy.

Cons

The slightest nudge makes the lens shake like crazy. It only stops up to f8 which makes it virtually useless as a macro. The color is fine and focused, but gads these constant reminders that pop up every time you change the camera mod.

Both cameras have been sent in for repair 2 times each to repair this same defect. But doesn't connect.

Do yourself a favor and pass up this one. The version with 30x zoom is much better in overall quality.

You can't beat 50x zoom with high quality.
