Of course I do not pretend to me to use a camera always correct and optimal. But if you follow some basic things that you / wife a lot of fun at the EX2F. The Smart function I really just use for snapshots in good light conditions. Otherwise, I set the camera mostly to M (manual) and Scan in RAW format with 80 to 100 ISO. On the display I can see the effects of aperture and time changes and original, the light mood thus optimally influence. Aperture 1.4 is, but because of the better resolution I hide most one to two stops from. The macro function is very good, is also supported by the rotatable display. So I do not need to crawl around on the floor or hitting me in the bushes while my motive can adjust from any angle. I edit RAW photos with Lightroom and have good to very good results, of course, not comparable with my Nikon D7100. But the slight WW-distortion can be easily corrected and low image noise I get "calculated away". I have this small, lightweight camera like this, because the photos can substitute a pinch, a half-size photo. Cons: High ISO areas you should not use a second battery is an absolute must, the shoulder strap is nonsense - why there is no beautiful hand strap here. I ordered a Samsung hand strap, which is wonderful. Well, actually, I'd like to give 4.5 points, I now take 4 or 5? The benefits outweigh, so 5!
