I am retired an now live in Nicaragua. I needed a camera but they are to expensive here so i decided to order a used one from Amazon. I had it sent to my daughter and she brought it to me when she vacationed here. How is the camera? I have no idea since i can not use it!!! It takes some kind of large memory card that i can not get here. In my reading of the camera i do not remeber any mention of this different kind of card. I am VERY disappointed having a camera i can not use. I would order the card from Amazon but i am not sure if it would work since i have lost all faith in Amazon.
