This camera is a huge disappointment, the battery life is horrible, esp. after a few months of usage. I have to charge it after only a few hours of taking pictures.Also, the battery is difficult to remove the camera, which is required the charge it.I don't understand why they design the product so you have to remove the battery to charge it, why not follow the cell phone scheme where you just plug a charger into the device itself?Bottom line, this produce is a waste of money, go with a different brand.
