The Sanyo AZ3 is my first digital because I have been convinced that an analog SLR better photos macht.Aber I have to say that I'm surprised this camera takes excellent sharp and crisp images under normal Bedingungen.Sie has many ways of manual settings, which has not some "professional" Digital. It is very fast and convenient to use. Cutting back in the dark, and I have not had any pictures of the tripod and the Nahbereich.Das housing is made of metal and gives the camera a high perceived value. I own this camera since Anf.Februar 2004 since I have you done with me, and so did some photos, which I hätte.Als not made "without" small format camera a fantastic addition to an existing SLR. For the money a very hot tip!
