Title: Great results, but not the best for point-and-shooters
Product review: The good: high resolution allows a lot of cropping; 28mm and 200mm wide and tele settings are MUCH better than the 35mm and 105mm found on most other cameras; plenty of adjustments. For instance, it's got matrix, spot, and center-weighted metering, and I've used them all. If you are an advanced amateur and really enjoy digital photography, this is a great camera. It was designed for you.The not-so-good: like ALL digital cameras, this is not as sophisticated as the current crop of 35mm SLRs. For instance, the focus is slower, and it's hard to use for studio/flash work. If you don't like reading camera manuals, buy another camera. To get the best results, you must be prepared to tinker.
