Its shape is easy and fluid but it also comes with a solid grip that the user would find rather handy when clicking. It comes in the conventional colours or Midnight Black and Metallic Silver. This camera is equipped with the Digital Image Stabilization process, which reduces blurs caused from camera shake using high sensitivity and fast shutter speed.
