Less is more. Had this camera only 8 or 10 megapixel maximum, they would probably provide better image quality, and perhaps get a fourth star from me. 16MP are too much for a 1/2 "sensor, even if it is a BSI CMOS with EXR Processor. The default settings of image size, compression, noise reduction and sharpening deliver images that are really pretty in the 100% view, because they as ausschauen watercolors, but not as pictures. And that's the main reason why I have very wrestle with me, this camera not to send them back, even if it is very comfortable to hold and suit me from the operation and functionality her great dignity . The electronic viewfinder is not the miracle, but all I've also not expected, he does his services and the possibility of additional lenses as screwing magnifiers for close-ups to the 58mm filter thread, was another argument that I have to send me the part let . The foldable monitor is good and practical, the macro mode is fine, the Fokusiergeschwindigkeit is also good. What I had to get used, is the manual zoom, because it is a little heavier than normal in certain focal areas, then again more easily. But this improves with time, I have read in a forum.
When I with 400 delimiting ISO, color saturation, noise reduction and sharpening on "high" spot, the watercolor effect disappears slowly, for whatever reason, I do not understand. If I then reducing the image size to 8MP, I get images that match the quality about my compact Kodak Z915, on a mini sensor already has too much of a good thing with 10MP. After some experiment with these settings I might be able to live with the camera, because the quality of a DSLR I've not so expected.
Since I paid only 221.- Euro for the part, I can say that the price / performance ratio is just. The list price of 349.- I would not be willing to pay for it.
In conclusion, I will say it. it is an insult of the marketers in this industry, to attract potential customers with astronomical megapixel values, particularly if they are packed in mini sensors. Who little more closely engaged in the subject, will understand that this is nonsense. "The more, the better!" is a lie of the economy. The truth is: Small Sensor + many megapixels = modest image quality. Less is more!
