And the purchase I have not looked back!
Since I usually insert my camera when attending concerts, I could in the actual working environment, "although not yet tested, but this has not prevented me from some other tests.
The fact that this little gem just about 120 grams weighs, is the first big plus. There was my old heavy lot. Respect. the choice of color, there is the camera so in all possible dazzling colors, for me came only black in question ;-)
The screen view can also between black, white and - you do not believe hell - are set pink, but everyone must decide for themselves. Personally, I was too garish pink and black to dark. Here too by balancing the display in direct sunlight quite a lot is won - another big plus!
Since I am a big fan of manuals, I have this same also studied, only to find that at least the basic settings can be performed easily and comprehensible even without instructions. If I then on previous cameras and the problems think ... Another big plus point for this camera, it is fully recommended for technologically less experienced people and offers easy handling.
Personally, I am a very short time to be a fan of Intelligent Auto "the camera become - blurred and shaky pictures here belong to the past I also had regard skeptical implementing the Panorama function with high-speed continuous shooting is a pity that you do not here... can insert homemade picture series because it really and is still working to easy, without much change Sensational with really great results -. but beware, this feature makes it easy addictive and ensures with appropriate imagery repeatedly for Lacher ;-)
The function of improving portrait photos by automatically beautification "of the people is for me a mere gimmick, to which I can not see any use for me in everyday use. For testing purposes, try though I must say that even here success can be achieved. To what extent the required will probably have to decide for yourself.
The Advanced Flash came to me with respect when shooting at dusk. Very far located in the semi-darkness. I can not wait to try this out at concerts hardly! :-)
The quality of the made videos - then played back on a HDTV, of course - is also more than excellent. Again, I expect, especially in concert videos very many happy memories and can not wait.
Of course, the memory chip required is not supplied, but can be found in the manual is a list of matching chips and one of them was fortunately in my possession. Simply snap in and get started, really beautifully simple.
The same applies to the charging of the camera (2 hours max., Very nice!) And transfer the images to your PC using the included cable. Can recharge at the camera the way in 2 ways: via connection to a PC or by connecting to the electrical outlet.
A Case is not incidentally included, but this did not bother me much.
All in all I have to hold in conclusion that you really get more offered here for your money, than you might expect at first glance. This camera is a real little gem and lightweight, easy to use with lots of nice features. This is something I normally erwate of outrageously expensive SLRs, but not from small compact cameras. I'm really thrilled and can only recommend this camera, beginners as well as advanced in the subject of photography be here can practice tricks!
A little tip: Take after purchase simply times an afternoon and learn the camera without knowing operating instructions by their just tried. In retrospect, I wish I would have done it that way. So making photography really fun! :-)
