There is nothing cut-down about this camera. It has all the functions a serious photographer expects, in a small and light system of body and lenses. Focus, exposure and white balance are good. Ergonomics – the placing of external controls around th...
The lenses are optically very good for the price but they are mechanically a tad rough. The zoom is stiff and gritty but the manual focus is smooth and well damped. The dynamic range is restricted compared with the competition and the viewfinder is sma...
This two lens kit is excellent value for the traveller because it is so light and compact. Having spent a couple of days walking around with the full kit in a small bag it was a shock to the system to come back to the heavy Nikon and Canon DSLRs. Do th...
