This is my third digital camera and I have to admit that it is by far the best I’ve had so far. I needed a camera that could zoom in on wildlife and that it does pretty well, but unfortunately the automatic focus struggles when you reach near maximum zoom. You might say just use manual focus, but that rarely is an option when you’re out in the field trying to capture animals in their natural habitat. Apart from that little gripe though I have to say that for the price this camera comes at you can’t find anything much better on the market at the moment. It’s well build and has a sturdy case, it sits well in your hand and all the controls are easily accessible. If you need a camera with a good zoom then this is the one to go for.
