As against this, is struggling to find without hesitation the trigger (like the switch-on button for that matter but the consequences are somewhat less important): no projections to identify it (as the device does not fear the least 10 °, how with gloves?). It can fall from 2m without consequences? Frankly I did not try, but if the whole gives an impression of solidity, there are little rubber bumpers to cushion the impact when dropped.
No battery power pack, a sealed double door lock allows access to the terminal that connects to a USB port, please take a transformer or charger or battery pack in her suitcase.
The rear window of sight is wider than in most compact but I would have preferred a viewfinder, however rudimentary it, I find this device better suited to field sports that window devourer of energy that could then make disengaged.
No wheel quick access to the various functions of programs (if one has the habit of his favorite camera is a pb because conduct automatic return quickly) but a green button for switching the presets you will be stored for the occasion.
Getting started: the switch resists slightly, to feel good point that the ignition is on! The ignition is not instantaneous but ok, the device is more quickly ready for the photo, will have to pass fissa development.
That day, that of commissioning, it was beautiful weather, a splendid summer sun ... Deception: Can not see anything in the digital rear window, the sun crushes everything and no signal napparaît legibility result: referred to the blind .. I am several shots, just to hope for good in the job, and there, second surprise, the latency between each shot seems to me long, long .. It's not that a feeling but it's the same feeling as I had been when I crapahutais with my first digital: a Nikon. However this is only felt very subjective, I have not analyzed further with powerful SD etc. but I find it disturbing.
All my pretty white cat lounging on the sun terrace on an outdoor carpet .. black, clack, a photo!
Caramba, the highlights are cramées!
No RAW format, most hope to catch the shot. A glance on record: the smallest sensor as it exists? This undoubtedly explains the low dynamics of the vehicle, provided it is a compact fighter ... but, I mean the illuminated snow making very strong contrasts, that are ..
In defense of this device I have to say that these early disappointments I found the presets built of excellent craftsmanship while giving full measure to the 16 megapixel onboard. These are easily accessible from this correct the bad impression left by the missing wheel.
Aquatic pictures are of very good quality and superb macros. A pool test is however insufficient, a dive in the sea or river should be exciting!
The GPS function allows you to archive its walks without spending hours to learn databases, it's not bad, I do not know what consumes most of the GPS or screen, it is better to have some written before batteries so if the trip lasts a little.
In conclusion I would say that it lacks little to make it look very nice compact in the ideal companion of his sports travel: a sensor more hair to gain momentum, the availability of RAW format, an optical viewfinder to move the rear display when circumstances permit and, best of all, I would have liked a handful for any maneuver with one hand, but now I demand a lot!
