This is one of those wunder products. Too many features to list them all. The panorama feature is so easy to use its ridiculous.
Preset scenes- one for pets that shoots three pix in a row to capture their best moment. Automatic, Program, Aperture or Shutter priority settings are available, too. I have just touched on the functions since I received the device but rest assured it will do about everything you want from a point and shoot camera.
The long lens even got me a shot of a jet at flight level seven mile high with the engine nacelles glistening. Its lighter than I thought it would be. It arrived in two days thanks to Beach Camera sending it FED-EX free of charge. Only one thing- make sure your battery is full before attempting to upload pix to your computer or it will shut down in the middle of the operation. Other than that its been a pleasure.
