  • The electronic viewfinder is superb with high resolution and comprehensive information display. Switching between LCD and EVF is automatic as the eye comes up to the finder. The camera is a pleasure to use and image quality is good for general use but not
  • The small X Trans sensor doesn't really cut it these days. Such a small sensor in such a large body is decidedly eccentric and resolved detail is poor compared with the best of the competition
