Beautiful photos
(Heather Sanchez - 10/8/08)We purchased this camera mostly for taking pictures of wildlife, like birds and scenery. One particular feature that attracted us to this camera was the ability to add conversion lenses (sold separately). We have purchased the telephoto lens and we really see the difference that that lens makes. We love the quality of the photos. The detail that shows is breathtaking. We actually took an excellent picture of the moon and can see amazing details in it.
The only thing we don't necessarily like about it is the size of the camera itself. It is not sleek and slim like many digital cameras on the market, but those cameras tend to not have the zoom capabilities that this camera has. Also, if the H5 were not designed as it is, the option to add the conversion lenses would not be possible. It is a trade-off, but we are definitely very happy with our purchase.
