Very high quality considering its 15–17t price tag. Connecting a GPS receiver to it is possible (maybe someone likes geotags) Even though replacement batteries and control panels are available, we regret having to remove the IR receiver. The kit lens of 35mm f/1.8 is my main lens. Learn to use the manual settings on your "SLR" if you want better results than you're getting by shooting in "auto" mode. If you want photographs with a "blurred background," then you need a fast lens; the whale lens is too slow for that. Someone complained that there wasn't enough shutter speed for luminography, but considering that the average camera has a 30-second maximum and then switches to bulb mode, all you need is a remote to be satisfied. For those looking to get their feet wet with DSLR photography, the entry-level camera is more than a good bet for its price.
