Not For Me – I’m not sure if it’s just because I’m used to using big DSLR cameras or if this thing is just too small for my long-fingered hands. It was uncomfortable to use, and the viewfinder was difficult to get used to. Very disappointed with the ease of use with this camera.

Great photos and and amazing zoom – We bought this to take with on vacation instead of our full size DSLR (Sony 3500) to cut down on weight. We took it out with the DSLR and took pictures side by side before we left and it was amazing how well it did! It was super light weight and everywhere we went it took great photos. Its not a full replacement for our DSLR but on the go and for traveling, not having to lug around a bunch of lenses really makes a huge difference.

Likable camera, but not the best zoom photos – I have an iPhone 13 Pro. My Canon SX740 broke, so I was looking for a replacement long-zoom compact camera. I wanted to keep this small, convenient, and user-friendly camera with a good user guide! But the Sony night photos often did not focus, even when I set manual focus to infinity. The Sony does not have image stabilization, which is amazing for a long-zoom camera.

Wish it had GPS like older models. Amazing zoom in a tiny package. – In previous years, the Sony compact zoom cameras had build-in GPS which is a great feature for a camera whose main purpose is travel photography. Sony has replaced built-in GPS with a phone app — this solution is hit-and-miss. I frequently loose the connection between the camera and phone, meaning that I either don’t have location data or I have to fiddle with my settings (usually stop and restart Bluetooth on the phone) to reestablish the connection. We also frequently travel with two Sony cameras and both cannot connect to the phone simultaneously. And of course it doesn’t work if you aren’t carrying a phone. When the app works, it is probably better than built-in GPS because it is always up-to-date. The old built-in GPS would often take time to establish a satellite connection. So there are trade-offs either way.

good all purpose, but has weaknesses – My first order of the HX99 was bad. Volume/sound didn’t playback, grip fell off. That one was returned back to seller. The 2nd one I ordered from eBay.

Perfect for traveling. Get extra batteries, you’ll need them. – I took this on a month long overseas trip. And I’ve used it around my workshop to make videos.
