Yes, but it can sometimes be difficult to get steady shots with it. If you're doing long study shoots for school, get a tripod. But it is a nice, easy to use camera. Also your pictures will only blow up to the certain size, which is fairly large, but just make sure it's large enough. ;)

From past experience with point and shoot I have had good results using Class 4 cards. This is Class 10, it will give you way far more better quality than what you are looking for.

I bought this camera for my college photography class. I was using 35mm ilford hp5 400 black and white film but you could also use kodak or other brands as well as color film. Since we were developing the film in class ourselves that ilford film was the easiest to process.

Yes, this camera was used to take graduation pictures, and they came out very well. I would recommend this camera.

Yes this is an awesome camera. I use it for concerts as well and it takes fabulous pictures. I wish I could share a few for you. Its light weight and the speed is awesome. Not a point and shoot. You will have make settings for each situation just like any DSLR. I love mine and intend to use it as my primary camera.

I bought this camera for the same reson. It is a great camera to learn digital photography on. The EVF is a little but small and low resolution but at least it has one. I would recommend it. And the zoom range is incredible.

My experience is that the camera is good. It doesn't match up to more expensive models in terms of speed of multiple shots. I also had some trouble taking pictures at a graduation in dimmer light while my son-in-law with a more expensive Sony had no problem. It does what I want which is take good pictures of family and even scenery, but it has some limits.

It depends on what you are looking for. This is an excellent camera, I would recommend the entry level memory until you know what you need after using the device for a while.

i not sure what it is your asking, but this Is a great deal on an amazing camera..DO take a class or two about digital cameras, as this one works better when you turn off the "green" light for auto setting..the owners manual is very confusing book, so take classes to learn about camera's basics, then go play with it..Self-teaching is best way to learn anything..

dpreview.com does very extensive testing, you should check them out. I think a lot of the choice depends on what you want to do over your photography life as once you get a camera you start buying expensive lenses and become entrenched (Canon or Nikon). In my own experience, I've found Canon's formats to be a little more use friendly to non-professional photographers. But people who have been photographers for years, tend to gravitate to the Nikon standard as it has some better personal customization on the higher end.

Depending on ur brand, Nikon or Cannon. But me and my went into Best Buy to get an opinion on which camera we should buy. And my wife is also an amateur looking to take sport photos and portrait photos. Which led us to get the Nikon D3200. We decide to buy on amazon because of the price and buddle. I think this camera is a good amateur starter to use.

Myrna, Have you gotten your camera, yet? If so, what do you think of it? This would be my first digital camera, and what attracts me to this is that it has manual controls. I would be learning photography on it, so I figure I should have manual and auto controls. I am looking to get a Panasonic because a sales person at Best Buy raved about them and said they have the best lenses. To be honest, I know practically nothing about photography, but have had an interest in it for many years. Do you think this camera would be a good plact to start, at least digitally? Thanks, M

It's not that good but in its class it's ok. If you want a small, pocket sized point and shoot digital camera you should be ready for lousy performance in low light. Unfortunately bigger sensors and better lenses are the keys for better low light performance.

My opinion is this would be a excellent camera for a starter. It has all the features of a proffesional camera at a low price.

That depends on how much one wants to learn about photography. The camera has many settings and features that enable a lot of control over the photographic process, so it would be an excellent tool for those wanting to learn. On the other hand, if one is only interested in the result, rather than the process too, then there are simpler cameras that would take great photos without the complications.
