    Pros: Does Everything and more, better features and Quality than Canon and Nikon
    Cons: Doesn't get enough credit, but needs a faster lens past sunset.
    This Camera is simply Fantastic, it does everything that cameras costing twice as much offer.

    Pros: Takes Excellent Photos in All Conditions
    I have been looking for a mid-level digital SLR for a while and found this camera with two lenses included and built-in image stabilization. It has surpassed my expectations. It takes shots very fast and the picture quality is unsurpassed. The only issue I've had with the camera is that if you use the LCD to take a photo instead of the view finder, performance is compromised. But, this is a very top level high resolution digital SLR camera and you can't go wrong considering this one!
