Though I didn’t find any reviews on any site about this camera, I bought this camera thinking that Sony makes best camera.
Bad points-
1- Picture quality is horrible. There was no sharpness in the picture.
2- Lenses make loud weird noise when you click a picture.
Good Points-
Camera is sleek and compact, easy to use.Look wise its great.
As soon as i got this camera, i clicked around 50 pictures with auto mode. None of them were good. I tried all settings and mode but in vain. Video quality was very bad.
I returned this camera to Amazon next day itself. I would not recommend anyone to buy this camera. Now i know why did i not see any reviews on any site(may be no one bought this camera).
Okay so, I agree with the other person who reviewed this, this camera isn’t good at all. The pictures come out really weird, & not clear. it makes your face look oily & blurred. The camera looks great, but when the picture comes out bad, its not worth it.
