I love photography, but I don't have money for a pro camera. I get more out of this camera than I would have expected. Amazing resolution, quick shutter speed, 18.3 mega pixels, 10 frames per sec, and up to 60x optical zoom. Also, if you're a fan of instagram, this camera has many of picture editing tools like partial color and toy camera. I found it here on Abe's of Maine for over $100 less than other websites. You will never regret getting this camera.

Comments:
This is a very nice all purpose camera, with an especially good performance under low light. This is not only because of the size of the lens but also the various operating options that allow multiple exposures for getting good quality pictures under low light, and for balancing light inequalities (bright/dark background) to get an overall good picture.

This Sony has so many features, but can be very basic if you want to just point and shoot. Already have the previous Sony model and wanted the additional zoom and wow did I get that with this camera.

Product is what it is described. Takes great quality photos and many extra features. Sony product is awesome and lens maker Carl Zeiss is great in this set-up. Great for taking aerial photos and for creative picture taking. Full zoom is not of great quality but the rest of the camera makes up for it

The camera is small enough to take pictures everywhere. There are so many settings on the camera that it will take me a while to master them.

Mostly for pictures of grandchildren, occasionally for scenery and animals. I tend to crop a lot of pictures so the 18MP resolution is good. HD video, indoors and with active zoom,came out fantastically well without having to change a lens.
