Don’t do it.
I have had 4 or 5 Sony digital cameras over the years and they have been great. When I broke the screen on the last model (totally my fault) I was confident that Sony was the way to go. A quick google search listed this model as the 2018 best point and shoot under $100 and I was sold. However, I was deeply disappointed when it arrived. Honestly I don’t care too much whether a camera has 8MP or 20MP (I rarely enlarge photos). What I do care about is how long it takes to take the picture. I hate trying to get a picture and by the time the camera focuses and shoots the subjects (usually kids or animals) have already lost patience. This camera is way too slow; after every picture there was about a 3-4 second delay when the screen went blank. Most pictures came out blurry. Even changing modes didn’t help. For those who care, this camera felt flimsy, my other Sony was lightweight but had a solid metal casing. I might have got a lemon but I am guessing Sony got lazy with so few point and shoot cameras being used these days. So I am returning this camera, I haven’t decided on a replacement yet, but this is not worth $80.
