Fragility

The camera capability may indeed be quite serviceable, however, it is eggshell-like in its fragility. I purchased it on a Saturday, took several pictures for a landscaping project on the following day; got out of the car and dropped (yes, dropped) the camera as I moved to a standing position. The height from which the camera fell was approximately 2 feet. From that point on the camera was unserviceable. I took it to a camera repair agency as our extended warranty would not cover damage. The camera repair agency returned it to me with the following message - "Camera frames appears bent, ...LCD, CCD and main circuit damage from impact. Impact damage extensive, beyond economical repair."
