9/10

The good: Excellent level of specification for price, complete camera system already in place, great image quality, Super Steady Shot, Anti Dust system, Eye Start, battery life, D-Range Optimiser, good ergonomics
The bad: Noise reduction reduces fine detail, LCD screen lacks punch
Verdict: It’s simple to use, offers high-resolution images and has plenty of handy kit built in. And while it feels, well, a tad clunky it’s an excellent bit of kit well worth a look
