Love my oll Coolpix 22. 20megapixle.
Incredible images for a $100 camera.
Though my primary camera today is a Sony A 6000.

Yes it is.

A pic of my wild kitty been around for 2 plus years. She sleeps under the front deck in a straw bed beautiful. Looks like a Himalayan not sure. It only allows a 6 ft buffer before running off pure blue eyes

She comes almost every day at 9am then I feed here . No one left behind
