Reception

Techradar rated it with a 4/5-star rating, "praising its JPEG quality," view finder. And its AF focus speed. But disliked the camera's lack of raw processing and "its display power," along with a lack of touch screen.

DPReview found the progress in technology impressive, and were happy to see a Magnesium Alloy Body and its included resistance. However, they also said the lack of a touch screen. Or direct AF point selection with a dedicated joystick. Or control to be, problematic for some.
