For a device that starts like clockwork, that fits in the pocket without making head and extreme situations (rain or water), I highly recommend this unit.
It has some small flaws, but that's normal for a compact say:
- The 16Mpx too jpeg artifact
- No manual mode (see the brilliant ergonomics menus, it would be a little too complicated things)
- Apparently no burst mode
- The self-timer is activated for a photo (and since it takes 3 clicks to switch it on, it gets boring if we made several pictures in a row retardant)
- It takes 3 clicks to turn the flash
And pluses that make me love this device:
- The menu ... so easy that I did not read the course manual (and did not need to do it too sought to have a function Besides there is help. contaxtuelle)
- Video hd perfect
- The submarine extra mode (for snorkeling, not more)
- Full Auto mode choose knew perfectly every landscape shot, portrait, underwater macro
- Macro mode ... amazing (! Less than a cm there is just a development of slow video macro)
- Ultra fast ignition!
- Attended panning (with overlay of the previous image) works great and well fitting with the supplied software never misses
And gadgets:
- There is an HDR mode, the results are not great
- Simplified modes panoramic 180 ° and 360 ° are good (the pano is taken into a rotation and the camera records through the compass data), except that the pixel image height is very small relative to the sensor 16Mpx!
- Compass and GPS: GPS in addition to the photo contains information taken direction
I did not dare test his strength ;-)
I recommend for snorkeling buying a flotation system (found on amazon)
