Duracell is known for high quality and durability. These batteries are in our Arlo surveillence cameras. They last 3-4 months and are easy to install and remove. I'm pleased with them, but they are kind of pricey.

When I got this for my five year old daughter, I wasn't expecting the camera to be amazing. There are tons of variations of these cameras from China and the grammar on the box doesn't instill the most confidence when buying, so I had my expectations pretty tempered going into this, but I've actually been really impressed with it so far. The plan is to give it to my daughter for christmas, but I opened it up and tested out everything now so that we didn't have an unexpected flop on christmas day.I'll outline the good and bad below.The good:-Pretty affordable and it comes with a 32 gig memory card. A lot of the others I looked at didn't have a card- Good size for little hands, and quite light.- The little tripod actually has metal threads on both sides and rubber feet- The ports and card slot have a rubber door that protects the ports- The little lanyard is pretty easy to connect and disconnect even for little kids.- Menus are pretty easy and intuitive for kids. I think my five year old will do great with this.- Can connect directly to a computer as a USB Storage device without having to take out the memory card.- A surprisingly large number of filters and borders you can add to pictures. Its a lot, I don't know how many but it takes quite a while to flip through them all. Some are even like cartoon cut outs that you can pose inside of or whatever.- The selfie camera works well and will probably be a favorite for a lot of kids.The so-so- Picture quality isn't amazing, but its what I expected and looks quite good on the little screen which is probably what your kid will be looking at the whole time. You can select different quality settings but defaults to a VGA quality level- This camera has games on it... this can be good or bad depending on your opinions of such things. I know some parents want to limit game time and that might be a challenge here. But if your goal is to just occupy their time, maybe this helps a little. It has snake, box pusher, block breaker, a maze game, and a game where you have a plane that shoots other planes.- Its default volume is incredibly loud. You can thankfully adjust it in the settings.The bad:-The tripod is nice, but you can't adjust the angle, so its just for giving it a really good solid stance on a surface. You'll need to put something under the feet if you want to achieve a certain angle.- The lens is not very recessed in the front of the camera. I'm a little worried it may get scratched easier than it would have it it was sunk in a bit more. but it is at least recessed a little bit.- The micro USB slot is probably going to be a little difficult for kids to use for charging. So either get a magnetic adapter, or be ready to charge it for them. The rubber battery door fills the whole space, so you'll probably need to just cut it off if you plan to use a magnetic adapter for charging.Overall, I'm pleased with the purchase. Feel free to post questions to the Q&A if you have them and I'll try to answer them, but I think this is going to be a Christmas hit for us.

User manual says not to use rechargeable batteries, but I've been using them exclusively so far with no problems.

I haven't spent enough time with this camera to give a solid review, but so far it's been doing great.

Professional reviewers of the Canon M6 Mark II bemoan the lack of quality native lens. Get over it. Circular file those kit zoom lens like the ones handed out in Canon’s press preview events. (I have given away one M50 camera body and kit zoom lens with another giveaway to come.)Sigma has released three quality EF-M fast prime lens. I have been using both the 16 mm f/1.4 (24 mm equivalent focal length for full sensor) and 56 mm f/1.4 (84 mm). Along with Canon’s 32 mm f/1.4 (51 mm), these are excellent lenses. The advantage of the Mark II higher resolution sensor (compared to the M50) and good prime glass can be seen in 11x17 and 13x19 prints. Hopefully, Canon will release a quality EF-M zoom lens in the near future.Why spend thousands on a prosumer crop sensor camera? Two reasons. First, you avoid the greater bulk and weight of full sensor camera body and glass. Second, the Canon M6 Mark II is an excellent camera for concert photography without a photo pass. It passes for an inexpensive compact camera. Buy a good seat within reach of the 32 mm or 56 mm lens. No EVF or zoom lens to call attention. Elevate the camera slightly to clear the heads of those in front of you. Limit shooting time and dim the LCD display to be courteous to those behind you. The wide shots and medium crops will be excellent to print and share with family and friends. Leave the commercial stuff to the pros.2/4/2020 - just returned from a 10 day vacation in US Virgin Islands and British Virgin Islands. The camera and lens got a workout in all conditions, including pouring rain. The Canon 32 mm f/1.4 was the sharpest lens and produced the best photos. After many hours of Lightroom processing and review, I believe the Canon lens outperformed the Sigma 16 mm f/1.4 which excelled in indoor photos, such as the one of the St. Thomas synagogue. The Sigma 56 mm f/1.4 did a nice job as well.I chose to shoot most outdoor shots with an aperture of + or - f/5.0 and a shutter speed of 1/2000th - 1/3200th of a second. Setting my focus point a third or so into the frame, I was able to obtain pretty sharp focus foreground and background. (I am just an amateur. Please forgive my lack of mastery of technical terms.) For what is it worth, I felt the camera struggled a bit with dynamic range, especially shooting the Baths in Virgin Gorda where giant boulders blocked the sunlight and created deep shadows. I was only partially able to bring up the shadows in Lightroom. This was one of those times in the trip (there were others) that I wished I had brought along a full-frame camera, like the impressive Nikon kits lugged by 2 German visitors wadding through the Baths (don't slip).Now a downside or two to this camera. The touch shutter constantly defaults to ENABLE mode, despite constant disabling in the menu. This produces a lot of wasted shots and a focus point on the display that moves around all over the place. And, the EVF stayed in my bag nearly the entire trip. (I used flash on several occasions and had to remove the EVF each time to mount a flash or remote trigger.) It is just easier to compose the shots using the display. I turned the display brightness to maximum, and could make out the display even in the intense sun of the Baths. Seriously consider buying this camera as a body only without the EVF and mediocre kit zoom lens. I doubled down and ordered a second body.

Has a lot of attachments. But will work for whatever your trying to do. The underwater or even attached and video recorded.
