David, Gunthorpe, Nottinghamshire Experienced amateur
- Good points:
- In-built HDR capability and Panorama shooting in camera are both excellent features. Reasonably compact camera with well thought out external ergonomics such as the tilt LCD viewer.
- Bad points:
- Menu system a bit complicated some options can be difficult to find. Camera manual is a bit basic for a camera of this price and complexity.
