Title: DON'T BUY THIS CAMERA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Review: This camera is terrible in every aspect and design, to get the SD card out you have to open the battery compartment, which when doing so you loose all the settings as in date and time on the camera and you have to completely reset everything. If you use the cord to download the pictures to your computer instead of taking out the card it drains the batteries very quickly. Even when not using the cord to download, the batteries drain very quickly, it's such an issue that it's one of the trouble shooting things that they have listed with this camera. There solution is to shut off any apps or things on the camera you're not using, tells you to turn down the brightness of the screen. Really your solution to this problem is to disable features that are on this camera, what's the point of having those features if when using them they drain the batteries very quickly. Let me explain what I use this camera for, to take pictures of items I sell on line. I put in a new set of energizer batteries, tested them with my ohm/volt tester, they tested 1.58 volts. I took 17 pictures downloaded them by using the cord and then I took 10 more pictures and the camera shut off and right before it did it said batteries expired. So I took the batteries out and tested them and they tested 1.28 volts, which will make most things still run, like my game cameras. There's definitely an issue with these cameras and the power they use and how fast they drain batteries. I've also have had it lock up and stop working several times and it wouldn't shut off or do anything, had to open up the battery compartment which takes all the power from the camera so it will reset and then close it and then turn it back on. I had a Sony Cyber shot which they don't make anymore, for over 10 years and I took literally thousands of pictures with it and it cost half as much and the pictures were clearer and of higher quality than what this camera is capable of taking. I would still be using the Sony, but some how it developed a gray spot that was showing up in all of my pictures and it was causing potential buyers to ask what that spot was on the item. So I had to stop using it and bought this camera thinking it would work great for what I was doing and also work great for taking pictures of nature and wildlife. I wish I would have sent it back right away, but I figured I would give it a chance to get better, because they said it would if I did the update. Well it's only gotten worse with time instead of better.

Title: Great product for the price
Review: I pick this camera for the price, I'm really happy for it. The image quality is pretty good in photos, but taking a video could be a little bit messy when zooming in/out, after 30x focusing is bad and the time to get a sharp image is kind of slow, even using a tripod. If you want to shoot a video zooming in, especially for moving objects, this isn't the best product for you; however, if you are an amateur like me and use a camera from time to time, this is a good option.

Title: Great buy for a starter
Review: Since becoming a mother, I’ve been wanting to get a camera to capture moments instead of always using my phone and taking up storage space! This is a great beginner camera! The camera is lightweight & I’m excited to use it .Some cons are there don’t seem to be many videos on how to use this camera to it’s entirety as far as the different features and the user manual is super short and doesn’t tell you much. The only other con which isn’t a huge dealbreaker for me is that the autofocus is extremely slow . I’m going to test it out for a few days and leave an updated review !**** okay after a few days I had to come back and update my review. The autofocus is still very slow which ended up being a deal breaker after all seeing how other cameras capture photos and the picture quality isn’t that great on the camera (it could be different once downloaded but I’m not sure) . Don’t recommend the purchase

Title: A great workhorse at a small price
Review: I purchased this point and shoot camera to have on hand while I travel. As a an artistic photographer it is important to have a tool like the Pixpro to capture images that come out of nowhere. It performs well at both tight macro and zoom settings. The images are sharp and perfect for the enlargements I use for my final prints. The small downside is the need to carry spare AA batteries. To that end I would recommend investing in a AA charger and a set of rechargeable batteries. Overall, a great value for the money spent.Consider investing in a hard shell case as well.

Review: Okay, I have to admit I haven't been absorbed with tech lately, but this is so much more than just a camera. It's like a tiny computer and has so many features that, even though I've owned digital units before, it's going to take me some time to get familiar with, never mind master.Excellent value for the amateur.

Review: This is a remarkably capable little camera, especially considering the low price point. For an occasional photographer it is a great option, certainly on par with more expensive bridge cameras. My one complaint is that it reverts to normal settings each time you turn off the camera, meaning you need to keep making the same changes over and over. For example, if you select continuous shooting mode and focus tracking, and then turn off the camera, those settings will return to their defaults the next time you power-up. It is a small complaint. But in terms of versatility, for a more experienced photographer, this is a nice back-up camera to keep in your equipment bag.
