Now that I own the camera for more than two months, I have to say now because of the recent recession to what. Clear I was pissed that my new camera at the beginning was not nearly meet my expectations - I had a "Monday Model" caught with dirty sensor, sharp images were impossible not only under incandescent lighting. These came after some time still the pearl necklace - paid a lot of money, and my 5-year-old C-7070 made better pictures - very frustrating. Submitted so early January and 4 weeks no camera - Pentax Well, your tact in dealing with clients could be improved. Two weeks ago I received a replacement camera - and am still thrilled. How long does it take until the teething troubles are forgotten, I do not know. Eventually only counts the camera itself are crucial for me the following advantages.: - Housing for DSLR relatively small and light (for me a clear advantage despite great hands - my fine motor skills is sufficiently pronounced) - Meaningful thoughtful arrangement of comprehensive controls - Excellent image quality (. See dpreview, digitalkamera.de etc.) - Quickly (after 20 images at 7 fps - the camera takes some time for the save, but, meanwhile, continue to trigger capable !!) - Well thought out menu structure - are particularly useful 5 user memories - Professional configurability white balance - for example, useful for events with an unusual light, once the example image konfiguriert- perfect for the whole evening! - But access to 1a optics, particularly with the DA * 16-50 or the "Limiteds" unbeatable cost, ... - Weatherproof - at the price a unique selling point - Extremely quiet (trigger levels unrivaled quiet, control signal can be adjusted in stages and also off)
What I do not like yet: - Display rigidly - folding screen lacks extraordinarily me - Not be remotely controlled - perhaps via a firmware update? Would be awesome, camera takes pictures in the rain, and I'm sitting in dry ... - Greater than GH2 and alpha 55
Conclusion: For me the best compromise at the time - I want especially image quality, along with usability, versatility and special outdoor skills, but I take the slightly larger Camera and the lack of folding screen in purchasing.
