"A very good camera"
Pros: Ergonomics, well balanced controls, very good pictures
Cons: Noise at high ISO, manual focus ring
Summary: This is a very good camera. The main problem is because one's compare it to SLR; it is a very good camera but it's not a SLR (with a big sensor).
Ergonomy, controls, menus are very well thought. Picture quality is very good at low ISO speeds (80-100).
I really appreciate the possibility to use 3 different sizes of pictures (4:3, 3:2, 16:9). Manual zoom is a very good idea.
Since it is an electronic feature, the manual focus ring has no limit (it always turn). Therefore, it is very difficult to adjust the focus at infiniti.
Taking picture against very high level of light is tricky (i.e.: sunset) - the picture on the viewfinder get washed (by the excess of light).
I would judge the rotation (up-down) of LCD monitor only fair: I would have preferred a sided pivot similar to the concept from other manufacturers.
I have taken more than 500 pictures so far: daylight, night sceneries, but I have not used the flash yet.
