I would recommend this to a friend!

This camera is great for taking quick pictures. Easy to use. Focuses quickly and captures colors wonderfully. The video is also good quality. It is small and compact, so easy to travel with. Battery also lasts a good amount of time.
The Sony cyber-shot model I had before was also good, except battery/card door broke and could not be replaced. I had it for 3 years and got very good use out of it.
I've used this camera under water in swimming pools and on freshwater river trips.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great Quality Videos
on September 22, 2014

This camera is nice. One of the features I love to play with is the Panorama feature. It's the best feature of this camera. I've also tested the waterproof feature with a friend in an indoor swimming pool. The underwater image quality came out okay. You have to really be patient and quick with trying to capture pictures underwater. We were trying to capture our underwater faces and the pictures that came out were either our chests because we couldn't hold our breaths anymore or our ugly underwater faces. This will probably be the last time I take underwater pictures because I don't know how anyone can look pretty underwater unless you were taking perverted pictures, or have a mask on for snorkeling or diving. Pictures of zoo animals came out nice, clear, and true-to-color. Video recording quality is high quality and beautiful. My cousin was on a budget and requested me to help out with photography at his wedding. I also think video-recording the event is just as important as the picture-taking, so I inserted a 16GB SD card and used this camera as the video camcorder. The quality of the video came out so nice and was recorded in an easily-shared mp4 file format. The one weird thing I notice is that when recording in low-light, there's this on-and-off beam of light that would show up in the video which I think is there to adjust the lighting for the video. I also do not like that I have to charge the battery inside the camera because it takes away the time that I could be using the camera with a second battery. But other than that, this is a really great camera and I would buy it again.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Disappointed
on June 8, 2015
Posted by: Charbycat
This is the most expensive camera I have ever had. Was so sold on the great salesmanship of the store. No worries for at least 4 years we were told. Guess what ? In a year and a half my camera has broken clips which hold the battery door closed . I am very cautious with my cameras. It was never dropped or misused. Though the service centre certainly put all the blame on us. The camera has been sent back on the extended guarantee - paid $ 70.00 - with little hope of a repair or replacement. The cost of the camera, new camera bag, 2 batteries, and several micro memory cards, we are very discouraged with both the product and the Future Shop extended warranty.

"Shockproof" - not so much!
on June 2, 2015
Posted by: EStanley
This is the second time I have purchased this camera, and each time I have ended up being disappointed. The camera itself takes excellent photos and video, however it is not as durable and "shockproof" as advertised.
The body of my first camera cracked during a long hike. It was in a protective case during that time. Now, the screen of my current camera has cracked. Also, while being kept in a protective case. Obviously, in both cases the cameras are no longer waterproof.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hi phuongphieudieu,
The camera is only available in the following colors: blue, black, orange and pink. The silver one used in our Youtube demos is the DSCTX10 camera.
