Be Wary of Sharp in general & DEW not buy this camera

Author's Rating: Rating: 2/5 stars

Pros: Ergonomically great. Best features for the $$ a year ago.

Cons: Notorious for problems with a faulty dew sensor. Limited & expensive service availability.

Bottom Line:
Find another brand camera with better service availability. This product has notorious problems with faulty dew sensor, and they only have 5 service centers in the USA. Read More

Piece of junk

Author's Rating: Rating: 1/5 stars

Pros: None - junk from the very beginning!

Cons: Pretty much everything on this camera stopped working immediately.

Bottom Line:
AVOID THIS CAMERA AT ANY COST. Many features quit working within 6 months of owning this, and now it doesn't work at all after only 2 years of infrequent use. Read More
