THE BEST
There are few buts for this magnificent camera. The combination of features and quality typical of much higher cameras with the ease of use and its small size and immediate connectivity are undoubtedly the strengths of this camera.
Thanks to its large 24.2MP sensor, it works perfectly and with great quality in all kinds of light situations, even in low light situations .
It is very easy to use and also provides us with a guide mode that helps us achieve concrete results by teaching us the best settings to use on each occasion.
Thanks to its Bluetooth connectivity through the SnapBridge system , synchronizing the mobile phone and the camera becomes something simple and immediate at the same time that it uses little battery due to its low consumption connectivity system . In addition, it allows you to control the camera from the phone, which makes it possible to use the application as a self-timer.
It is also a camera of relatively little size and weight, with a built-in viewfinder and flash, and has a long-lasting battery.
And finally, I am going to let Mario convince you with this complete analysis that he gave us on YouTube:
WORST
I have already told you that this camera has few buts, but perfection does not exist. It does not record in 4k nor does it have a folding screen , although if photography is your thing, with the video quality it provides you have more than enough and the folding screen is up to you ?
