The processing of the models that I know is good, the battery life in order, and the picture quality should not be overrated. Maybe not just marketing strategists at pixel mania some buyers are involved. Of course, the images could be better, the shorter shutter lag, the built-in processor speed or the camera software extensive, but go as in many areas of our lives Price and quality (perhaps with a different pitch) here as well in the same direction.
The shutter lag is already getting used to, but most designs are probably anyway not immortalized in affect.
The image quality can be said that my downloaded set resolution (8 instead of 14MP) a printout 40x60 in my opinion is good, it all depends on, among other things on the environment. With small picture recordings 30MP were theoretically possible, but the lenses were used only 3 - 10 come out, here you should probably leave in the world ditalen the church in the village. And a small Blitzbirnchen could not brighten up the horizon 20 years ago the North Sea at night.
For users, those holiday snaps (incl. A4 images) rich in memory, the camera is definitely worth considering. It is small, convenient, no-frills and affordable. More expensive models are technically definitely my favorite solution, but I am one of the people who make calls with a telephone as well. A motive bell there is not, the photographer must also like to switch times the location is not sufficient if the zoom range. Fitted with a great love for art models need to cost a lot of training time and experience in order to repeatedly shoot the picture of the year can.
3 stars? Yes, there must be the possibility of the increase here too. A camera that controls everything and does not cost anything, we will probably hold only in the hands if the vision of Gene Roddenberry reality. Who comes with this machine to its limits, should (a lot) more money to spend, little more is not worthwhile, the next frontier would be lurking around the corner, as is always better.
