Bought this camera for a fly fishing trip to WY because it was waterproof and shock resistant. It survived drop and rain. Excellent quality outdoor photos. Adequate zoom and still sharp. Small enough to fit in my pocket where it was always ready. However, lens location interferes with grip on camera. I've photographed my finger too many times. SR mode is too slow. Used preset modes to overcome speed issue. Otherwise, a great little camera.
Pros: I took this camera on a trip to central America.It takes great pictures,is easy to use and very durable. It has many user setable features. Its a great point and shoot camera that fits easily into a pocket when you just can't take a big bulky camera with you. Cons: You need to purchase a spare battery because battery life is short,About one day of shooting. The camera uses a battery pack not AA or AAA batteries so you must buy a battery made for this camera.I would much prefer it use standard batteries because a place to recharge a battery pack is not always available.(it can be charged from AC or a laptop useing the included USB charging cable)
I obtained this item used and it is a great camera. I recently left this item in my pants pocket and the camera went thru the washing machine.. IT IS A GRWAT CAMERA. When the cycle was over. thier it was.. durable as ever. It has been about a week.. still working GREAT AS EVER. I used this in low lighting..great..all the features work well. THIS CAMERA IS USER FRIENDLY.BATTERY LIFE IS GOOD ALSO.. VERY REASONABLE HERE IN EBAY.. FOR A GENTLY USED ONE ABOUT 75.00.. THE NEWER VERSIONS XP20 AND XP30.. WHY TRY TO IMPROVE A GREAT THING.USED GREAT UNDERWATER FOR STILL PICS AND FOR MOVIES AS WELL. ENJOY...
nice i bought this as my main picture taker, so far so good, only thing i do not like is the volume for playback on the camera is very low, this might be due to the refurbished state idk , i do know that they will exchange it for another if i like and thats cool with me. i am actually replacing my FIFTEEN year old FUJIFILM FINE PIX 4mega pixel dinosaur, that camera was indestructible, and still works marginally, video has no sound and can only be taken in 60 sec bursts, thought i would upgrade lol. so i went for another fujifilm i figure i had such great luck with the first one i would go for this one!!
I like the cameras features, very easy to navigate through menu. I really like the wide angle i get from the camera lens. The shape on camera fits perfect into hand and easy to maneuver. About the only drawback is the cameras battery life, which I took care of by buying two extra batteries for it. Real happy with it so far, and can't wait to try it underwater now..
