Things I like about the camera:
- It's small -- it fits tight in my jeans because of the protruding lens, so a jacket pocket would probably be better.
- Wide angle lens (24mm equivalent on a full frame)
- It has a ton of features, half of which I won't probably use. It has manual adjustments which is a necessity for control. I did try face recognition today (it will show the name of the person it's focusing on) and in camera cropping which are nice additions.
- It has a hotshoe - perfect for off camera flash. The picture below is composed with a 2 flash setup triggered/received by Cybersyncs from Alienbees.com. Cybersyncs are nice and compact and reliable.
