Does such a small camera like the A3500 actually 16 megapixels? Do I need an image stabilizer? The former may not, but the latter makes itself pleasantly noticeable. You can use it and make the 5-fold optical zoom crisp images. The digital zoom should be allowed, picked up to close the images appear much noisy, but I've experienced different with hardly a small camera. Fun the A3500 nevertheless, because it is thought to unencumbered to snap drauflos. In automatic mode succeed beautiful pictures that can in addition also can edit in the camera. You can adjust the colors in the photograph Fisheyemodus, or shoot and monochrome images. Nett. In macro mode you can very, very close approach to the subject. It's worth it then. Very handy, I find that you can adjust the brightness of the display. I know, sunny days are fairly rare, but without this ability could barely make out the display in direct sunlight. Video recording with this camera are better than I would have thought it possible. I especially like the ability to zoom during filming. This works fine and so I was really surprised the A3500. Since it also is still incredibly small and light, they accompanied me almost everywhere. Finally, she also has Wi-Fi, and so I can also transfer photos quickly and easily. All in all, the camera is not designed for professionals, of course, but as a companion in all situations it is practical, handy and convincing. I like it.
