Goodbye SLR. The S1 is my new main camera. So far I have photographed with a D3200: natural, city, people, cats. Super thing (I have a 35 / 1.8, the 10-24 and 55-200), but eventually hurt me shoulder the weight of the camera including the lens and case, and in some moments I was also disturbed by the clicking shutter. (Concerts, weddings) Now I have the S1 and that is the liberation of my photography. For me as an amateur photographer the perfect camera. Even with the supplied lens succeed super photos, but because of course I want only the best, I have still the 32 / 1.2 brought. A few settings I have adjusted because the camera was not optimal in the delivery. I use Picture Control "landscape", and have as here by other reviewers recommended sharpening reduced to 0. Focus I put on AF-S. The automatic face recognition People are always sharp, while I focus point manually moved for landscapes. This is better and more flexible than in the DSLR! The image viewing I have set to only photo, then the camera shows on the display really just made the photo and nothing else. My tip: adjust the white balance. I still have made a tiny movement, so it is really true to my eye. The file format I use JPG large fine, and am extremely happy with the pictures. Sometimes I test in night shots RAW so that Photoshop Express can then apply right on the iPad also Entrauschungsfilter. From such details aside: the S1 is small and light enough (it's harder than it looks!), In order to always have with us. It is also faster to use and for me better than a DLSR. I can take pictures silently (!). Anyone who understands the importance of it, will want to have one too. In humans, I can press the shutter button as many times in succession, and have a series of perfect sharp photos. Without messing around like a monkey with a giant DSLR, only with a tiny toy. Because I really feel like experiencing technical progress. What this cheap camera provides incredible. For me, mirror reflections are outdated so.
