I have been shooting photographs since the 1970's. An avid fan of digital since it's inception I had moved up from basic cameras to a nice entry level Nikon DSLR in 2011. Feeling I needed something a little more serious I began researching the 'prosumer' class cameras including top end APS-C camers from several quality manufacturers. A little reluctant to move from Nikon I warily looked at specs of other higher APS-C sensor cameras. Not feeling I could justify the cost of a full frame DSLR but wanting a higher level of preformance I found the specs of this camera to be as appealing as it's price point, Went ahead and ordered the two lens kit with the 55-300mm lens and am totally satisfied!

The camera has a really nice feel to it. I don't have huge hands but average, and it feels really good and secure in one hand. The weight is good, a nice solid feel and well balanced even with the 55-300mm lens attached. I was pleased to see that with the 18-55 lens, though somewhat heavier than my Nikon D3100, this camera is more compact (shorter) since the VR is built into the camera and not the lens, allowing a more compact lens.

The auto focus is quick and accurate, the continuous focus being amazing! The hi burst shooting mode (about 6 fps) is amazing too. It shoots so fast you cant even count the exposures but the images are fabulous.

Great resolution, amazingly fast and clear up to 3200 ISO speed, shooting into the night. This camera has quickly become my best friend! You will not be disappointed!
