IA (Intelligent Auto) setting surprisingly good; Scene Modes abundant, where manual controls for aperture, time, exposure etc..
Video: Prima recording quality with extremely slow-reacting autofocus However, sound quality is underground (dull, like a phone through the couch cushions round).
Conclusion: For the primary purpose (ambitious amateur photographer with demands for image quality, which does not necessarily want to lug around an SLR with him) an ideal, in the truest sense "cheap" tools.
