If you are a semi professional photographer and want to upgrade, this camera is worth considering. It is a great camera which takes beautiful images the colour production is also very good though video capabilities are not good if compared with the Cannon still it is more than managable. It is a very user friendly product with descent spects though a slightly over priced. The battery life is also very good. And the shutter speed? goes upto 8000. The low light capacity is its usp. I definately recommend you to buy it.
