### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ AMAZING!
*by C***A on July 16, 2024*

Such a good camera! Takes such good photos and is very easy to use. The pictures come out bright and very colorful.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 10/10 WOULD GET
*by L***Z on October 16, 2025*

Amazing!!! It came early and works well! I love it! Looks brand new!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Overall good with a minor setback!
*by K***E on December 3, 2016*

I love this camera! It takes wonderful pictures and is extremely well made! I recommend this camera to every one and anyone who is looking for a professional level camera. But I have to say I received my camera with no battery and no memory card! Which was such a bummer sence the page implied that it was included in the purchase. I was not able to use my camera for two whole weeks after I received it, due to the fact that I had to order a battery and memory chip. This was very saddening for me sence I had planed on using the camera right away and none of the local stores sold the right type!
