I recommend to buy, the product is of high quality.

Use for: 95% photo, 5% video. In general, I am satisfied with the purchase, at such a cost a good price / quality ratio. Who in the subject I think knows why it is better to take FF instead of crop 1.5, it's not about "bokeh". I often carry it with me, with a 24-50 lens it looks like a cheap camera in a good way, it does not attract attention.
If I figure out the autofocus, I will correct the rating to "5".

Pros

Sizes, not too big and not too small, comfortable to hold and carry, good balance of size. Great viewfinder, clear and easy to understand. Good build, nice to hold. Excellent in-camera camera, stopped shooting in RAW, if not responsible shooting. 2 memory card slots. An excellent 24-50 whale lens, yes it is dark, but very sharp and quiet, suitable for video. FTZ adapter, the old optics work, almost everything, even the third-party Sigma 10-20 3.5, started up with autofocus. I liked the quality of the video, even 4k with a crop (but I'm not a professional in this). matrix stabilizer.

Cons

Autofocus is not very good, especially at dusk, I am silent about the darkness, there are Nikon DSLRs, they focus better. Frequent misses in focus in daylight, and this is strange, the focus priority (rather than shutter release) is set in the settings. The FTZ adapter does not work with all native lenses, for example Nikon 10.5 DX fisheye - autofocus does not work. 4K video writes with a crop, it's not critical for me.
