I just got the camera in yesterday, WOW the screen is awsome! i love the "boostable" brightness and the extreme LCD view (where if u hold the camera up high, the LCD compensates for the distortion and actually makes the screen easy to see clearly from wierd angles).
The zoom is a little noisy though, but other than that the camera is very impressive. The startup time is very quick, and the sceanery modes are very easy to navigate.
Im comming from a casio Exilim, so its taking a little bit of time to get used to the quick access options on the joysitck, but they are easy to use. the joystick is fabilous, ..i love it much more than the simple Directional pad that most digicams come with.
The build quality, so far as i can tell, is excellent. The texture to the surface of the camera feels very nice to the touch. It is a bit heavier than my casio, but it kinda adds to the "expensive" feel to it. I dont mind it at all.
Ive taken a few pictures, but it came in last nite, and after charging the battery, i only too a few dimly lighted indoor pictures. So far they look very good, i experimented with the widescreen mode for filming and shooting pics, and it looks impressive as well.
Im just now a little paranoid about not scratching the huge screen, i got a nice carrying case for it, and im thinkin about ordering some screen protectors.
more on this review later when i get more pics taken!
