What's Hot: Focus lock and focusing speed. The camera was faster to focus and held focus better than canon D40.
What's Not: When using the camera's Eye-Start focus system and reviewing shots using the LCD to discard unwanted images, battery life is 150 - 175 shots.

Review: I have used this camera with both a 200-500mm Tamron zoom lens and a 28-50mm f/2.8 Sigma lens. I’ve shot using ISO settings from 200 to 6400, and up to ISO 1600 noise is undetectable. Prints were great up to 8x10 without sharpening and at 11x14 with minimal sharpening. I didn’t make any larger prints. Action shots were clear and sharp. The function button is great in that it calls up the settings menu and allows you to change settings using the back dial. That feature makes it easy to change ISO on the fly. The in camera image stabilization works great and works with any lens. Overall I am completely satisfied.
