Does this make taking photos any easier?

Based on my wife's usage, and believe me she takes about 50-100 pictures a day; she has told me that she can see the screen better, no more glare on the screen before/after taking picture. Because of the privacy portion of the screen protector, when showing people pictures on the iPhone, they have to either look over her shoulder or hold the phone itself to see the pictures clearly, looking at them from the side are obstructed. Hope this helps? Overall my wife is very pleased with the screen protector.

No, it is just a screen cover to protect your screen and minimize fingerprints .

Nope. Once you've set it (turn it on), as I recall, everything is automatic. As with any new touch-screen device it may take awhile for you to get the hang of the menu operation but once you've played with it for a day or two you'll have it down and some of the features are not the kinda stuff that a "regular" point-and-shoot photographer should be playing with anyway....they won't help produce a better shot in the context of how I use the camera, at least. There are about ten settings I even care about and once I've set them, I pretty much forget about them. Hope this is useful to you.

I have taken some good pictures with it. You have to use it in manual mode. I'm not a lazy person so I don't mind using manual mode.

Absolutely, the wide frame of view coupled with the low aperture should make it very simple to take photos in low light, provided you've got a camera that can handle the high iso!

Its better than most cameras. Especially if you hold the button down halfway first and let the camera focus first, then the shutter lag is almost non-existent. If you're pushing the button all the way without pre-focusing, it can take a few seconds for the camera to focus and then take.

On my d90 and d3300, it does take longer intervals. The idea is that this will hit the shutter release button for you at any time interval you set, so u can put it on any setting. But make sure to have the focus on manual or it'll refocus every shot before taking it.

Yes, it allows you to make your own adjustments manually, this includes shutter speed, iso and many other functions.

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.

Yes it is difficult, and not any easier under water I'm afraid. And, without the audible feedback you're not sure if you are focusing or taking a picture. You end up just shooting from the hip so to speak and hoping you bring up something memorable. I was unsuccessful both in the pool and surf despite having used the auto color correction. The only real benefit of this camera is not having to worry about it getting wet, which is a judge plus in inclement weather street photography.

No, it does not have any affect on the photos. All my photos are still clear and beautiful.Hope this helps.

I'd recommend it at least. Or, I'd go faster if you can. I'm finding that sometimes with Photoshop there's some speed issues for me, or maybe I'm just picky.

Depends on the camera. If you're useing ND filters and manually setting your stop then yes. But if the camera is auto setting the exposure then it's a really expensive useless peice of equipment.

If you have a decent dslr I would say no. I haven't used it much because it's difficult to use. The software is not particularly user friendly. I'm sure one in used to it out well be fine. But I'd I had a dslr I wouldn't bother.

Yes, much faster write. Only important if you are taking bursts of shots. If you have a slower card such as that one, you camera can stop taking photos until the cache is written to the card.

If you use the included cable, it does allow you to use either shutter button as you want. It also allows for A/F when pushing either button halfway down. Having to have the cable plugged in is a minor annoyance but otherwise it's awesome.

The greater benefit is in access to the menu for adjusting settings but having a small view of that your filming if helpful but it does shorten the battery life. You will need to get the extended back door to use it. I'd also recommend lens filters.

If you keep it attached to the camera all the time, it makes the camera slightly heavier. Otherwise, I find no downsides to the device. It works well and it is inexpensive.
