This is a camera I’m using from about 6 months. And I think that this is pretty better camera for beginners. This camera is not too heavy, and very handy with its rubber grip holding area. Battery life is decent & can take aprox 700 shots in a full charge through viewfinder. For live view shots it can take a lower count of shots. It don’t has any kind of wireless connectivity such as Bluetooth and wifi. But it has usb connectivity. Picture quality is too good. And it should be a better choice in it’s price range.
