  • Photo quality does not impress but it would be nice to have a DSLR that can give nice video and low noise sharp photos. Posted by nanto, Portugal
  • It gives excellent picture from iso100-400 from 14mm to 200mm. Grains from low light photo reduced after upgrade to v1.2. Not as good as discribe in burst mode. Looking forward that they will have more large aparture lens. Posted by Homer Wat, Hong Kong
  • Dpreview rates resolution as superb, and image quality <ISO 800 is fantastic, and this camera is now rated on Luminous landscape as excellent by the author. See link here:
