I feel that the quality of compact cameras regresses ... The ones I bought it several years ago were of better quality. Is it to make us buy equipment "reflex" more expensive? Anyway, this one is very bad: one can make black and white photographs (is it really useful?), But the pictures against the light are of poor quality (which turns out well yet more useful ...). The indoor pictures are very bad, as for night shots, forget it ... The trip is long, it is not possible to manually activate the flash (only the "automatic" option or "flash off "are arranged) and the automatic mode is really bad. The close up shots are all blurred. In short, a scam ...
