Have read plenty on here and in mags and internet,now totally confused.
Is the said camera any good for my wants,close ups and nature/wildlife
at range.Thanks in advance, John

Bought one of these for my daughter for Christmas; with the caveat that I have not owned a digital SLR I must say I am seriously impressed with the quality of pictures she is producing with this camera. She takes both close ups and wildlife (birds mainly) at range and the detail is excellent. I am sure a camera with a larger sensor would be better, and I am no expert but if you want a simple to use bridge camera, this one is very good indeed. You can also get a really useful guide to using the camera on Amazon.
