I bought this camera exclusively for indoor macro shots (from around 5-10 cm distance). So far I've found the picture quality to be outstanding. Great DOF at the minimum aperture, no visible noise at ISO 50 and sharp images and good colour reproduction. Also virtually no CA and less clipping of highlights compared to my other camera, the CP 885.
I can only really comment on the use of the camera under these circumstances (I use the CP 885 as the "family camera" for general use).
Problems:
Writing TIFF files is a little on the slow side.
I can imagine some of the controls would be a bit non-intuitive to use but as I was very familiar with the 885 I found this camera and its features quite easy to use.
