Great Camera, but lacking a print friendly instruction manual. It has an on line manual with a links to the instructions for all the cameras features, but no page numbers, ONLY links. So if you wanted to print the instructions for a pocket manual it would not work [without an index]. I don't carry a computer with me when I am traveling or out in the field, so if I need to know how a feature or setting works, I have to wait until I get home to look it up on my computer. Completely useless... Had I known there was no way to get a printed manual I would not have purchased the camera, I would have gone with a Nikon or a Canon instead.

I bought this camera because I wanted it's Wi-Fi feature as well as its 500mm range, It was going to replace my Panasonic Dmc-zs5. After shooting some samples, I realized that It was a downgrade in quality compared to the image quality from the 12mp Panasonic, and has far less manual control. The lens on the Panasonic was much sharper at the edges and the Panasonic pics had better color and dynamic range. I sold it..

takes good photos for the size of camera. The main complaint is that it is slow to start and tp shut down and it doesn't close the lens when the battery goes dead. If you don't have a spare battery, you are stuck with the lens sticking out until you can plug it in or change the battery.

(I am a serious amateur photographer, who had a job for 4 years that required me to take excellent professional-quality photos in a hospital.) This tiny camera takes some of the best pictures I have ever taken, even measured against a bulky DSL camera costing $1,000. I bought it for the bright colors and the macro functions, both of which are superb. Fairly easy to use, but the menu is a bit more complicated than a point and shoot should be. It also comes with no printed manual, which is typical of many newer cameras. The video is amazing for a camera at this price...even using the zoom function. I took a video of a bluebird that showed wonderful color and great detail...every feather was shown in detail, even using the zoom and in shade. I am not that happy with indoor photos using the auto functions...colors are not very good. Also, the flash is not the best; but I rarely use flash. But for overall quality of taking photos using natural or outdoor light, or using a zoom and for macro work, this camera is simply amazing. I have taken photos that show so much detail, I couldn't believe it.Read full review
You have no specific instructions. I mean, things that aren't familiar to me, doesn't explain how to use them. Neither has "shot" in the middle of the movie I take. I mean, My old camera allowed me to take pictures even taking movies. Otherwise it is handy and the photos come out clear.
