I bought this same camera about a year ago, but due to either sand on a raft trip or rain it stopped working. I immediately ordered the same camera again. I like that I have a 600mm lens that does well when taking small or close ups as well as helping me get nice feather detail on birds. All without changing the lens. I also appreciate that when extended it is about the size of my Nikon with a 300mm lens. For most things I'm able to handhold the camera even when extended. Still learning about the many features, but would definitely recommend the Sony RX 10.
