My second

The technical data I do not repeat now, because they are described above.

I got them, unpacked and looked forward for now. When I have taken them in hand, before the grip really liked me. OK, it is slightly heavier but feels really on robust and high quality.
Then as EF-S screwed 15-85 and looked through the viewfinder: worlds better. Much brighter, bigger, well simply: Wow!

Then turned on: targeted something and the shutter button halfway. The optics has focus Siert so quickly and so quietly, I would have looked nciht at the moment through the viewfinder, would not I have noticed that the focus operation is already finished. I can now understand quite why several photographers bervozugen lenses with ring-type USM and for partially correct to spend money ...

Also, the display of focus points with the transparent LCD as display is a stunner. Why is there not before a draufgekommen?

The operation is very simple and catchy. The keys are usually used twice. Changes can be made either with the upper rotary knob (for a parameter) and with the rear control dial (for the other parameters). Thus, settings can be done quickly and easily. After initial terms, one has already everything important and can get started.

The AF is one thing for himself: He works very well, but just for specific things, such as action shots you should still perform the manual to heart and look at the pages in question. But in general the menus everything is described so well that almost no look at the manual is necessary anymore.

Although it is spoken in forums make the assumption that there is focus problems. I could not find, apart from the fact that I think nothing of a camera just for shooting test photos to use. Dear make out of the hasu photos and then see if it fits. And easily set from the beginning not too much on the camera, but rather try one parameter at a time. I think the initial difficulties have now been resolved (when they were really other hardware and no user interaction).

All in all a highly recommended camera. I can put them each only warmly recommend.

And if there is enough money moderately necessarily the 15-85 with this take. In Set the price OK and as a simple travel zoom is perfect.
