Customer Review

Property me this Camera bought on the basis of diverse very positive test results.
My Canon 60D, with which I am very satisfied, but sometimes is too big and too heavy.
Purchase was decisive among other things the small aperture value and the usual operation.
It was clear that there was a camera designed for professional use.

The delivery was as usual very fast.
When unpacking the disillusionment:
Yes, it all stable and high quality, but also absolutely boring.
Yes, it is quite small and would fit into your pocket, but this is clearly difficult.
Yes, the case is very robust, but the lens cap looks very delicate.
Yes, open aperture is great, but my camera is not in low light with the autofocus after.
Yes, there is an optical viewfinder, but this is much better than with a disposable camera.
Yes, the display is very high resolution, but that creates my cell phone also.
Yes, the images are of the color very natural and sharp, but that should be expected from such a Camera.
Yes, the zoom can be quietly and sensitively dose, but are too restrictive to me starting and Endbrennweite.
Yes, there is a flash shoe, but if I mitschleppe the great Flash Mode, I can take the DSLR.
Yes, the lens is light strong, but not a panacea in evening light. And if tripod, then DSLR.
Yes, the maximum aperture sounds great, but real exemption is possible only conditionally. So here again DSLR.

So, the camera actually makes what they want and pretty neat, but without highlights.
For me as an owner of a DSLR and an inexpensive snapshot camera it unfortunately brings no added value.
Therefore, I can personally give only a satisfactory, even if the camera has actually done nothing wrong.

Outside the vote:

With my copy that I purchased at Warehouse Deals, I just had bad luck.
When unpacking my stabbed cigarette smell in the nose. This will probably stick for a long time in the rubber. For mcih a NoGo, especially since I like working with the viewfinder.
The viewfinder itself had crumbs and dust particles.
During a half-hour photo session, I received 4x the message "Lens Error - Please restart Camera"

Perhaps I should keep the camera, although it did not fascinate me. So she went back today unfortunately.
