Best Buy for the Long Zoom!
| Author's Rating: |
|
Pros: 12X Optical Zoom and OIS! Full Manual Controls!
Cons: Higher resolution viewfinder would be nice! No synd port for flash or TTL metering!
Bottom Line:
Close to an SLR at a fraction of the cost! Great alternative to lugging around bulkier and heavier SLR system when SLR quality isn't required i.e. professional use.

The Best long zoom currently available
| Author's Rating: |
|
Pros: Solid feel, intuitive easy to use controls, fast shot to shot time.
Cons: I would have liked AAA's for batteries and a larger rubber eye cup.
Bottom Line:
Its the best stabilized long zoom out there. Lots of user control yet very easy to operate. Looks and feels like a 35mm. Develops user confidence with superb image quality.

Pros: For anyone looking for the lovechild of a point-shoot and a dSLR, this is it!
Cons: Once you realize this isn't a dSLR, there are none.
Bottom Line:
It's not a dSLR, but it does enough to keep the average enthusiast or the "beginner" pro quite content.
