    Overall Rating: 5 Star Review

    Duration of ownership:1 Weeks

    Strengths: Great Image Quality, Stunning Color

    Weaknesses: sometimes slow autofocus in low light, no video mode

    Overall Evaluation: It has been a wile since I have shot with a SLR. So, take my review with a grain of salt.Overall this camera is great so far. The color is just amazing - very vibrant. As expected the built-in flash is limited. When used as a focus assist beam the flickering light can be a bit annoying. I am ordering a Speedlite and hope that it's focus assist beam is more subtle. I am still figuring out the optimal setting to use the flash as a fill without overpowering the subject.Aperture and Lightroom (non-beta) software do not have the RAW profiles for this camera yet. Therefore I have not tried doing post work with the RAW files.The camera is pretty quick at emptying its buffer when shooting burst. I was able to shoot 12 - 14 RAW+Ljpg before the buffer filled up using SanDisk Extreme III cards. The included lens has a decent range. I would like to see it come with a wider angle lens.
