Its a very good digital camera.i am not a professional photographer but photoghraphy is one of my best hobby.so if I had time I always take photos from my mobile.but one day one of my friend said that I have lots of great collection of photos.and he also suggest me to own a camrea to take more quality pictures.so I went to sony showroom they show me this camera and when I knew its rate I think its not so good.because its rates is not so high.but I just click a picture from this camera and I got its ability.so at the same time I owned this camera without any doubt and stating my photography.its actualy a very good camera.i visit lots of places and I also carry this camrea with me to make my tour a remembering tour.its very lite camera so very easy to carry anywhere.its picture quality is also very high.i used it upto 5 hours continuously but its bettery not get low.now imagine how much strong its battary backup is.
