My Review 

This camera can do everything you want and more. I do a lot of wildlife photography here in Wisconsin in all weather conditions. From 30 below zero to 95 degrees, I have had no problems. Nothing freezes up in the cold. The video is outstanding. I just can not say enough about this camera. I would recommend this camera to anyone who wants to take quality still images and video. The functions and other control settings are dead on. If you need to change your settings it is very easy to do.
