Limitations
The camera’s 3x optical zoom is limited compared to competitors with longer zoom ranges.

The rear LCD screen resolution is modest, impacting preview clarity. Battery life is moderate, requiring frequent recharges with intensive use. Advanced manual controls and RAW capture are unavailable, limiting creative flexibility for professional users.
