"I take it when I travel."I don't really see a good excuse for that, wildlife photos may prove nearly impossible. The burst rate is pretty good, and the image stabilization is superb. Better photos than her XR phone. The stability at long zoom was fantastic. I will update this report once I have used it more.

Olympus V207040SU010 Final Thoughts
"You guessed it, buy this."10,000 photos with it and it worked well for its limited capabilities. Its small and very comfortable to hold and use, which is great cuz I have small hands. Lastly, the complaints about battery life are totally valid. Or, you can select all-manual, if you want to set everything yourself. This camera was such a great gift for my daughter’s big sister gift.

"She swears by it."It size is great for pockets and small purses. Color and white balance is generally good. But overall I really liked this bundle and the quality is awesome! I would like a firmware update to fix that. My old SX700 that was serviceable for years finally gave up and failed.

"Quality."If you want to take bird pictures. I haven't tried the macro shots yet, but will update this review when I get too. Not to mention it worked great as a Weather Sealed Point & Shoot Digital Camera too. If you're a casual photographer, you can't beat this price, get it now. Ergonomics count, especially when you get used to Canon's excellent system--wow!

"Still five stars!"A great camera for the money and my needs! Mid-afternoon typically required swapping in a charged battery.

"Well done, Nikon."5 seconds to wait for auto focus is not going to kill me. So I went to a camera store and tried out both of them. Mid-afternoon typically required swapping in a charged battery. I did buy some rechargeable batteries to use in it. Simple to figure out how to use, even for beginning photographers.

"Screen works well."It's very easy to clean up noise in postprocessing by using noise ninja or neat image. Color and white balance is generally good. I haven't tried the macro shots yet, but will update this review when I get too. After taking a photo, it would not focus or operate, or so it seemed. I needed a Weather Sealed Point & Shoot Digital Camera with a sensor larger than what is on my smartphone.
