well, the camera may have a problem with shutter lag, but the pictures are of wonderful quality! if you aren't biased to the camera initially for taking the picture later than you wanted it to, it is a great camera! it just takes some time to get used to the shutter time. There are a lot of wonderful features as well, you can do a quick edit of the photo right on the camera and charge it by just plugging it into the wall! I enjoy this camera thoroughly!
