Phenomenal Photos

( - 4/21/06)

This is an expensive camera if you don't need full-frame images from your D-SLR. If you do, it's the best value anywhere! It is quick — no shutter lag compared to all those "consumer" cameras I have tried. The photos are amazingly free of noise in low light situations, and it can shoot at ISO up to 1600. Colors are accurate, even in AUTO white balance mode. I also got the Canon 24-105mm L lens to use with it. Together they make a great tool — I don't have to change lenses very often and the IS works great. I love it.
