Had an Om I 35mm in his 20's. That was my price. Although this camera takes decent pictures the quality is not what I expected for the money I paid. The real issue I have is that a lot of people would really like it - the lack of any real manual function and feel. To an extent you always have to rely on their digital nature and being a digital camera I shouldn't have expected anything else. But I don't give 3 stars for that. 3 stars for mediocre image quality. I would return the product if I could, but it took me a few months to gain enough experience to realize that this wasn't what I was looking for. My friend has a Sony A7 which he only paid a few dollars more for than this camera. I would advise you to go for this camera if you are looking for value for money.
