Quick review

The good
Great handling, feature packed, build quality, image quality as lower ISOs
The bad
Intrusive noise at higher ISOs, purple pixel fringing, focus hunting at longer focal lengths, no RAW mode, vari-angle screen missing, no status LCD, and shadow noise – even at lowest ISOs
Verdict
A mixed experience means that Canon's flagship might well have lost it's crown
