優點:
- Small size and light weight
- Pictures quality is quite good
- Added features, like high ISO reduction and hand-held shooting are nice at low light condition, though they cannot replace a tripod.
- Panorama is fun for taking scenery. Suggest not to use too wide focal length as distortion will be too much.
- Very fast focus
- Can drive 70-210/4 easily. A55 vitalize my 70-210/4 lens.
- Good combination with 35mm/1.8 as both are small
- Even with Zess 16-80, overall is still light in weight
- GPS records my location automatically. GPS location detection is quite fast.
- Fast auto-focus when taking video
- White balance is accurate
- Metering is accurate
- Bundled PMB software is good as it caters well for pictures, HD video and GPS.
- Very clear EVF. Auto-switch of viewing via LCD and viewfinder is user-friendly.
- The camera is not too expensive. I bought it at $5,390.
缺點:
- Battery life can be better
- Camera LCD is too good that some pictures are found to be blurry in PC monitor. (The blurry pictures are due to mistake rather than the camera).
評價:
I have taken this camera together with 35/1.8, Zeiss 16-80, 70-210/4 to Egypt in Christmas. I like the camera a lot because of its decent image quality and light weight. After the trip, I like the EVF as it is very clear and certainly better than OVF at night. Moreover, the hand grip is good for me. For battery, I need to change battery for 1-2 days but it's ok as I also brought 2 more China-made batteries (each only around RMB$62). I think I will use this camera for a long time as I am not able to bring heavy equipment and I prefer APS-C than M4/3.
