Just going to go for the basics here:I bought this initially for the video capabilities. But now I almost exclusively shoot photos. I've invested in some real glass and this camera performs beautifully.
Here's a a top-five pros/cons breakdown
Pros:
Beautiful LCD
Nearly instant-on
Ridiculously good video
Self-cleaning sensor
Fantastic battery life
Bonus Pro: Great low-light performance for this price.
Cons:
I wish the viewfinder was 100% coverage (didn't even enter my mind for the first 10 months of owning it, not a deal killer)
I wish it had two dials instead of one and one+pushing a button (didn't even enter my mind for the first 10 months of owning it, not a deal killer)
The rubber hand-grip is not going to survive the lifetime of the camera; it's beginning to separate from the body after a year and a half of near constant use.
Kit lens is a paperweight. Not a very good one, at that.
Sluggish 'burst' rate.
I highly, highly recommend this to anyone looking to get their first DSLR.
