Customer Review

I've been looking for a replacement for my something the old fashioned camera and then I ended up with this. I have it. Now 3 months in extensive use and would like to share my experiences with the camera with others interested like

positive:
- Small and handy, fits in every little ladies handbag, is about the size of a cigarette packet
- Very nice color
- Super optical zoom
- Solid model, because everything is perfectly finished and of high quality
- Touchscreen works very well, somewhat more cumbersome than my smartphone, but it's also a camera
- Menu navigation even without reading the manual to deal with (I had the first photo shoot at a child's birthday in advance no time to read this)
- Not make so loose-sensitive as my old camera, for example, if the camera keeps up at a concert to image
- Video camera very good, even the sound (have filmed at a concert), also in high resolution fits a lot onto the memory card, unfortunately the problem here: the battery life (see negative aspects)

negative:
- Image quality in spite of many pixels and technical possibilities not as hoped
- Camera reacts sometimes cumbersome, for example, after power up or if they have to charge the flash
- The charging cable is not connected to the camera that's right for other cameras, so no mini-USB or the like, so that you only can use a cable
- The plug is unwieldy
- The battery - my old camera was with batteries or accumulators corresponding thereto are operated, so that I am not so enthusiastic about this solution
- Battery life is not so great, you have to buy a spare battery if you want to film or photograph a long time
- Fingerprints can not be avoided at the touch screen, but the display is as very receptive and looks after a few twists and turns from pretty greasy

neutral:
- The camera has quite a few programs, settings and options, creative effects, etc. For me personally, most of the stuff is not needed, but this is of course the fun factor of the camera increases tremendously

My Conclusion:
For me as family and leisure photographer this camera is a handy little helpers that will make me hopefully last a lifetime. For people who deal with photography detail or want to make sharp images as from a pro, another model should specify prefer, they might be disappointed here.
Because of the shortcomings and the required additional components without which this camera makes it less fun, I give the camera 4 asterisks.

With new knowledge I will adjust the Rezi yet.
