I got this camera two weeks ago and I was very excited about it. It is a huge improvement over the digital point and shoot I had before. I spent most of my free time playing with it and testing its abilities. Unfortunately, the shutter got stuck, so I am sending it for repair. I took maybe 3000 pictures, I hope that an average shutter has better lifespan. The only thing I do not like is the focus point selection wheel, it is hard to control and makes weird noises.
