What's Hot

Sharp pictures, Nice design, Relatively cheap

What's Not

Default lens causes bad chromatic aberration, Noise doesn't scale all that well, Noisy motor

The Final Word

While it has a comfortable, solid design and performed quite well in most of our imaging tests, the default lens is a big let down.
