I got tired of point and shoots where a tiny movement or shade ruin the photos,and are very slow, especially since I use the camera to photograph my children indoors. Bought this camera, my first SLR, without any knowledge in photography. The camera is user friendly for the automatic mode, but I find that the automatic mode isn't much of an improvement from a regular P&S: colors aren't great, camera is slow to focus, moving kids- pictures far from great. For the cost of 4 good P&S cameras, I would expect MUCH better pictures. Either I take a course in photography, for which I definitely I don't have time, or take it back to the store, save some money and keep getting mediocre photographs with a cheaper P&S.
Another minus- got the lenses that come with the kit 18-55 and 55-250. The 55-250 doesn't shoot people that are close (you get the whole surroundings), but the 15-55 isn't enough zoom. Exchanging lenses in the middle of taking photographs- not doable (then you miss the picture you wanted, which was the idea of buying an SLR). Have to get some lens that covers more (such as 18-200). I understand now that if you want good photos, you really have to get into it, not for everybody.
