Good Points

Good technical quality; lots of compatible lenses; RAW enables precision work if necessary; 'functions' allow images to go straight from card to print.

Bad Points

Nothing really bad - the autofocus is a bit twitchy with moving subjects.

Good Points

Kit lenses are optically good. SSS is superb. Low iso image quality excellent. Great ergonomics.

Bad Points

Auto settings don't produce particularly good images. Noise is evident in images from iso 400 and up, high end being very poor.
