Alright. So I have a youtube channel, blog and online store. I also enjoy taking nature shots just for fun. Will this work or is a there a better one?

Yes, I am also a youtuber. I got this because the video on it is better than the three, but its best for taking pictures around 5k res, The video and audio sound great, I have had no problems, at all, or any complaints, If I were you, id go on ebay, and get the cheap generic brand 2 pack batteries for this also, becuase it helps a ton when your out some place taking pictures, the one I got was under 20 bucks, and it even came with adapters, and a car charger.

KatherineI also saw the same mixed reviews on the Panasonic Lumix. I took the chance anyway, because I wanted to buy an U/W camera for a friend for her birthday. As it turns out, she absolutely LOVES it! I saw the results. It took great pictures and great video! It may not be one of those GoPros, but for the price range, Panasonic does work, and my friend and her family have had fun using the camera, and they cannot wait until next summer!Hope that helps KatherineGeorge

Yes it will work. I sent it back because it wasn't useful to what I was doing. If you are taking pics of birds or wildlife/scenery it's great.

You can find the app on Google play. The Cool Cam works great never regret purchasing it. Vision is clear in the darkest places. As long as you have a good internet connection you should not have any problems. I use it to monitor my baby and it works well even when I am away from home. Hope you get through with yours.

Thomas, I love the camera!!! It's extremely easy to transfer the videos to your PC to edit. I have found that even though the software initially permits "frame to frame" editing, it actually edits in segments on the PC. When transferring to "YouTube" I have lost the last segment, yet, I'm a novice at this. It is possible to edit on the camera directly which I have not yet tried. The camera is new to me and I wasn't yet confident enough that I may loose my videos while editing on the camera. The camera is amazing for far distance shooting, the main reason for my purchase. Hope this has been of help. cj

I've been using my Elph indoors only to take photos of my beadwork. It is great for detailed close ups indoors however, I have not taken any shots outdoors yet.

Outdoor video is okay, as long as there is good lighting. The low lux on this particular brand is not all that exciting, making playback of videos taken in low light situations somewhat fuzzy and greyish. The zooming qualities should work fine for sports, although you shouldn't expect the quality as compared to that taken with , lets say, a 14 0r 16 megapixel camera. Hope this was helpful.

CWBaker. you wrote "Need 3D pop? Add telephoto and wide aperture and focus carefully" Please explain a little clearer? I'm a bit of a newbie and want 3d pop! Thanks.

this would be a great camrea just for that. it will take great shoots, but team that up with a good speed flash and you got a killer camera.

It will take beautiful video. You may be better off with a less expensive camera if you are just learning. iMovie or Final Cut works like magic.

I would go to canon.com and check out their website instead. I just make music videos basically and am no tekkie. Their facebook page ALSO accepts messages. I'd try their web site or visit their FB page. There's an upgrade I haven't done yet cuz it takes the usb cable that came w/the camera and I'm not filming until spring. Good luck, those are questions imo for Canon. (their editing software isn't good as per a call w/one of their peeps.) Everything else is great but get w/Canon imho. Happy New Year too.

I'd have to agree with J.W Kennedy, it is very quirky. I'd suggest the Fisheye or La Sardina cameras for a true beginner. Even the Holga would be a bit easier (although that uses 120 film).

Daytime photos/video are great. However, night time would be a problem...the quality is not good.... I would not recommend it for that purpose.....hope I helped answer your concerns...

Just get the "D5" product. Just use a quick shot - it can be a little messy.

I've gotten a few wonderful shots of the moon. It's awful bulky, heavy and unless you can do 5 things at once it takes a lot of tries to get the shot but its worth the hassel. I bought it for one thing and found out I can't use it for what I bought it so I'm going to sell mine.

Seems quite neutral to me. I haven't tried to blow it to over 100% and look for CA's or anything like that. You get so many filters to play with, in my view, more than you would ever use. I took them out a couple of times to try the colours on a sunset. OK, but not entirely to my taste. Too obviously manipulated. The NG's and the ND's are the useful ones for me. They are cheap enough, to me, to be worth the learning curve as to what I would want to spend my $$ if more use turns out I need better. So far, 3 art landscape shoots of 100 frames + each, not yet.

Hi Emily, the video quality is fine for YouTube. It is already shooting at 12.1 megapixels and you can change the resolution to 1920x1080 if you want the highest quality. Comparatively you only need a 3-5 megapixel camera to upload to the web so you're fine. Also if you upload at the highest quality Youtube will compress it to make it a smaller file anyways.Sound is not the best as with most point and shoots, best to get an external mic if you want better sound quality. Hope that helps.
