Anticipation, I am an amateur photographer and had 2 of the previous models, the second version was just crap. According careful I was with this model. Easy to use, great for private use photos and even in darker environments, as well as the use of standard programs made this camera quickly to my indispensable companion at club events. The video function is sufficient here might interfere with the engine noise when zooming something. I can live with it, which have the other models also made while speeches were recorded. The housing acts by no means cheap or vulnerable and fits well in my large hands. The price / performance ratio is perfectly fine.
