SOME OF THE SAMPLE CUSTOMER REVIEW FROM AMAZON : 

1) Great point and shoot camera -   So far after checking to make sure everything works as described.... this is an amazing point and shoot camera.

bought this to compliment my main camera canon 70D. I needed a smaller camera to fit in pocket or the bag I carry main camera in... this works perfect.... bought this also for the 4K capability and the post focus ability and it all works fine in this small compact camera... I have the lumix dmc-zs7 and it took good pictures and video... but the sharpness is way better on this new camera... I am still messing around on this, so I have not used this in a real scenario scene, only for testing in house and outside, and I am impressed with video and picture quality in such a small camera... zoom works great and better than all other point and shoot cameras I have used, but I would not zoom in on subjects to max, sharpness gets very dull and cloudy.... now with my camera, changing focus points in post focus was a little hard to figure out, but once you figure this, I love this feature, and you won't find this in any camera or phone that I know of. Now the flash mode on and off was a little difficult to figure out on my camera, because you can't use flash in 4Kburst or in post focus modes.

There are many many functions on this camera I have not yet played with, like changing picture scenes, expressive, monochrome, high key etc, for giving your pictures even more style... I also love taking video in 4k and freezing frames in action and using that pic to print off.
I am getting a charger and a couple more batteries for this, because you do drain the battery quick when in 4K bursts and using post focusing modes... also it's good to have a strong good SD card, I use the sandisk extreme pro speed class 3, 10.
It's still early to see if this camera holds out long because it just came out, but I highly recommend this.

2) Wonderful Travel/Hiking camera - Great camera for travel and hiking! The first ultra-zoom camera I've found that collapses into a true shirt-pocket size. Granted, the pics aren't up to interchangeable SLR standards, but I'll take a slight degradation in quality for the convenience of use. I can always carry the bigger camera for special events/places...Camera is very easy to use, menus are straightforward, and the EVF is a wonderful feature

when you are taking pictures outdoors on bright days. And as several reviews have
noted, holding the viewfinder to your face gives an additional steadying effect when
using long zoom ranges.

SOME OF THE SAMPLE CUSTOMER REVIEW FROM AMAZON :

1) So far so good - After reading the other reviews from amazon.com, I decided to settle on this camera. Reasons are the price of this and its overall features. First off, I didn't expect this to be a high-end camera producing flawless photos, because obviously it is not the type. However, I think it's the perfect camera for the novice user, like myself. It's got all the basic standards that digital cameras should have, such as the LCD screen, self-timer, and a 640 x 480 resolution.

LCD - I agree that the LCD is not clear enough, but I think it's good as it is. I mean, the LCD is pretty useful since it allows me to have a good idea on how the picture looks like. I really enjoy this feature.

Self Timer - This is another fun feature and I'm glad that it came along with. I think self-timers are essential in any camera.

640 x 480 - This is resolution is really THE resolution to get average results. This resolution size is another essential in digicams and I'm glad it's w/ this camera.

Anyway, I enjoyed using this camera. It's very easy to use and not to mention, the software is top quality! I've printed out several photos and the smaller size ones aren't bad at all. You could minimize your photos and use them in your greeting cards, works better than very poor quality scanned pictures! Pictures posted on websites/sent through emails are very good quality.

As for the battery issue, I guess it does drain the battery. My hint is, use an AC adapter if possible, like when you're taking pictures indoors.

Overall, I'm glad I bought this camera :) I just hope it doesn't break (as another reviewer mentioned).

2) Excellent choice for very low cost digital camera - I bought the Polaroid Fun Flash 640 SE -- it has no LCD screen, so it's really like a point-n-shoot 35mm camera. I bought mine at Circuit City for $39.

I wanted a digital camera to take photos of preschoolers in my Bible club at church -- to post on a private Internet website, so parents can enjoy looking to see what their kids do during our club meetings.

I wanted a cheap, easy-to-use camera that took a decent photo when rendered on the web (I don't care to print the photos).

I wanted a camera that was easy to download photos into my computer, manipulate and upload onto my website.

I got exactly that with this camera product. For $40, it's a great deal. Spend more for the camera with the LCD screen if you wish, but you might not really need to go for that extra expense.

Installing the camera software went with NO TROUBLE whatsoever (on my 3-year-old PC). My particular camera model hooks up either via USB or serial connection (I use serial, which is slow but within a two minutes or so, I can download 20 photos onto my PC). The camera comes with easy-to-use software for manipulating the photos. Two complaints on the software: I have to click around too much to do the work I'm trying to do, and it's a little less than straightforward to create web-ready JPEGs outside of the software's "photo album" file format.

The camera itself is purely no frills. It does have a digital display to show number of pictures taken and the flash mode, but that's about it. If you take a photo too close to your subject with the flash on, the picture causes the person's face to wash out (and then they have no nose!). But most other shots can be easily enhanced via software -- to lighten, sharpen the pictures.

So bottom line, use this camera to take pictures to share on the web when resolution and photo quality isn't as much of a priority as low expense and ease-of-use.
