Review:
I think that this is a brilliant camera. It has fast start-up, a nice solid feel and plenty of adjustments for the image you are trying to capture. The 2.5" LCD is a big improvement over the one on my old 300d and the controls are nice to use. Even for a novice just starting digital photography but with the intention of going further, this would be a good choice. Without nitpicking, I think this is a good, all-round solid bit of kit.

Stylish, practical and pleasing to use. Its pictures aren't bad either, so it's a good buy at this price

Good camera made great by its excellent touchscreen interface and wireless technology

As a showcase for Sony technology, it's brilliant, but it's far from perfect in everyday use
