On board telephoto lense.

Steep leariing curve. Many panels and subpanels to learn where everything is.

This camera is fantastic. I started out with my Minolta SRT-101 purchased in 1967 in Japan. I was prepared for a downgrade since this camera not being an SLR camera would not compare. In short it does. Learning curve is fairly steep but maybe that's because I'm not as young as I used to be but that being said; my eyes work fine and this camera takes fantastic pictures. Of course with a 504mm equivilent telephoto a tripod is essential on long shots but overall I give it 4 stars out of 5.

Easy to use and long rechargeable battery life. Great telephoto.

Have to work to find a problem. I wish I hadn't had to buy a memory chip or case but that's the way things are now days.

I'm not a pro or even close to it but I have been shooting for a number of years starting with my Minolta SRT-101. Great camera. When I was looking for a camera I realized I would give up some picture quality and options but decided I could get the best of both worlds with everything all wrapped up in a nice little package including an 18X telephoto (effective 504mm) to 28mm wide angle.
The battery holds enough charge for a full day of shooting with some left over.

I like and recommend it wholeheartedly.

Actually I did have a small problem that a while for getting somebody on the phone that could actually help me. It ended up being my problem so I gave them a pass.

This camera is one of the best pound for pound camera. its easy to use and the lens is great. its a little expensive to buy it though in the Philippine setting but is definitely worth-it, better than the newer h50 from my exp. Its light, the lens is very good, u have great macro shots and excellent stabilizers. other accessories are a little bit hard to order though.
