More than 3 months
- What are the strengths?
- Using the camera is a joy. Switch it on and its just as easy to use as a compact camera. The intelligent auto gets great results almost all the time, the face detection and AF tracking focusing is easy and ensures a good focus.
Best of all is the free angle screen, really handy for cool shots - helps you get creative. Too much to say really - so many features not enough time
- What are the weaknesses?
- Battery life can be a little short - didnt worry me though as I got a second battery for back up!
In the end a camera is all about the pictures it takes and this camera just doesnt let you down.
