I didn't really know much about cameras before I bought this, and to be honest still dont.

I bought this camera for the soul use of taking photos of football grounds and football matches on my local non league team to publish a review on my website www.ebbsfleetunited.net

However, before the season begun I went on holiday to turkey for my first use of the camera.

I was incredibly impressed with the zoom on this thing, I was using it as a pair of binoculars for some of the trip, and when set in the right light, the clarity is superb.

However, this camera is not great for indoor use.

When I got it I was surprised how small and how ergonomic it was - this was a nice surprise and makes taking photos comfortable and pleasurable.

Sometimes I wish it was quicker for the time pressed the button til it takes the shot was quicker, but it is good enough for me - especially when in Sport mode.

This camera is a brilliant beginners camera and I am more than happy with it.
