Pros Takes great pictures in light settings
Cons pictures in lower light are often very blurry; has some minor quirks
Recommended it? Yes

Generally the pictures taken look very good, but... Read full review »

Pros good for beginnersgood price for DSLR
Cons battery life in liveview
Recommended it? Yes

I have always envied those that could take amazing photographs; observing these people has led me to the same observation: they use DSLR cameras instead of the easier to use point-and-shoot varieties. I was always intimidated by these cameras so never thought that one was for me-- that was until I... Read full review »

Pros Everything!
Cons A little heavy and bulky. 
Recommended it? Yes

I just bought this camera for my hobby and I'm amazed by this. The quality is amazing and you have many features to make your photos even better.
