My Review 

First I was looking for digital camera, which had a lot of features but will not cost so much money. Then I researched and found out about the GE X500. Before I decided to choose that camera, I read more reviews about the user and their experience about it. Then they said it's a good camera! Then I planned to buy one.

The GE X500 has lots of features, even it is point-and-shoot, which are only found in DSLR cameras. I really like it! At first I needed to study how to use its priority mode features and read more about it. When I tried it myself, it's really working!

I like taking photos like in photography. And my shots are really good! Just learn how to set some adjustments. If you're not good at that, the GE X500 still have a automatic mode like other cameras in the store. Also, it can shoot in low light. I'm very happy and very proud of my GE X500. I really like shooting even simple scenes, places and people with me. It really captures the beauty of what you see.

Camera "pros" 

I really like the 15X zoom. The shutter priority which can stop the time or allow you to have a long exposure shot, like the ray of lights in the city streets. Also the metering mode which is the spot and center. The macro works well in focusing the subject especially for the flowers or insects.

I cannot find some features about the GE X500 which I do not like.
