I sold it after having done my daughter’s wedding with it.
  • Very good image quality when shooting RAW. Jpegs are too much sharpened and over-saturated to my taste.
  • Very well build, the buttons and turning weels feel very professional for a compact. Buttons are big enough compared to several other small compacts
  • Very nice turn and swift LCD
  • Good AF in normal shooting mode. Rather good AF in video mode.
  • Very silent cam. Liked that.
  • Dynamic range is just OK if you compare with Nikon/Sony APS-C sensors
  • Very poor viewfinder. One of the reasons I sold it.
  • Slow AF and difficulties to lock focus in macro mode, another one of the reasons I sold it.
  • ...
kindest regards,
