Compact yet formidable

commendable semi-pro digicam design from CANON . camera volume is not so bulky yet packed with a lot of excellent photographic features to keep both novice and advanced amateur happy . RAW shooting format capability , compatibility with Canon s Speedlite flash units plus dedicated wide angle and telephoto accessory lens converters . handsome camera body with sumptuous silver / matte black combination finishes . looks even more gutsy with the attachment of accessory lenses and Speedlite 580 flash unit . sad to say, my unit came with a rather loose- fitting accessory lens adapter. dear Canon, pls increase power of teleconverter lens to X5 to complete the fine package , thank you .
