Opinion: This is a fantastic camera! It has certain limitations, see Phil's in-depth review, but every camera has them. The biggest advantage (it's super high quality lens) is also it's main disadvantage: the zoom range is too limited for some people, although 10MP gives you plenty of cropping range. Color reproduction is fantastic, sharpness is superb and ease of use, once you are familiar with it, is extremely good.
Problems: Low light focussing is difficult, one must gain experience in overcoming this.
