This camera is just useless to me. I bought it at a high price from a store in Las Vegas because my camera was stolen the day before we went to the Grand Canyon. I didn't know much about the features but the price was right. Unfortunately, it has a battery life of about 15 minutes for photos, and 5 minutes for video. I sent it in to see if this could be repaired and they sent it back. It worked a little better then, but now it's back to failing within minutes. I have a battery tester, and I put in batteries that I KNEW to be nearly full, and the camera still refused to turn on. I'm currently researching buying another camera because the C533 is just useless to me.
