I got this thing when it was still hot off the production lines, not yet available in my country I risked ebay and got it from the UK. It was very expensive for a part time employee and I spent all my tax-return on it despite owing people money, credit card debt and bills to pay.
I never regret that decision.
The minute I got it working I was in love and love it today even as "out of date" as it apparently is. It still takes incredible pictures and I have LITERALLY fallen off rocks and my face suffered far more damage than this sturdy little camera, which still worked even when the lens it was wearing broke into pieces. Still works just as good today as when I got it and it's been bumped about in bags, on planes, in luggage and all manner of drizzle, rain, wind, you name it.
The pics are great - of course the lens makes a difference but really it's so very flexible and you can really make your mark as a photographer. The manual it came with was big, fat and extensive - it came with lenses that were for my money very good (I'm only amateur after all). I bought a little 28 and 50mm prime and have made prints that sit on my office wall and when people hear it was a digital camera everyone says "Wow, what great colour, what sharpness, what a great camera!" I do macro work with flowers and landscape work and my walls are ablaze with colour and detail.
Everyone comments - what a great camera!
Problems:
None at all. I love this ole thing and will likely never sell it.
