Its a very good n easy to operate camera .picture quality is pretty good.it comes with a 24.1 megapixel sensor .so the image captured by it is pretty sharp.its max shutter speed is 1/4000th of a sec which is pretty good for a beginner. Up to 1600 ISO the picture quality remains good.but after that grains starts to appear in the picture .the lenses which comes along with this camera are 18-55 mm n 55-200 mm which are good for beginners. Image quality of 55-200 mm lens is good up to only 135 mm after that pictures are sharp at all.while the 18-55 mm is only good for wide angle shots. But over all it is a very good camera for the first time users.
