The quality is at zero, very sorry for the money spent.

Took a little time from a friend in the store to test. I hoped that the device was not so fundamentally different from the "older brothers" . and that I would get it.
In practice, it turned out that everything is even worse. No sense of practicality and reliability from the device!
Switch focus = waste time;
With a heavy lens, you switch the mode . lower it down, intercepting it with your hand so that God forbid you don’t break the button accordion mount, switch the mode (you lose time)
Deleting pictures. looking for the delete button (wasting time)
Photos are average. The video is not better than the cheap counterparts.
I gave it back to the store. It is more logical to purchase a more nimble, practical and expensive crop (7D) than this option.
It can be advised to beginners who are uncomfortable with the ergonomics of initial DSLRs.
In my opinion, the manufacturer simply expanded the range of products, due to the destruction of the class of reliable, convenient, inexpensive and fast cameras.

Pros

- swivel screen - control of external flashes from the camera - video shooting - support WI-FI-SD card - average image quality

Cons

bad ergonomics: - the joystick combined with the ring does not make it possible to switch the focus point with one movement - the program dial lock prevents you from easily switching the dial with one finger while holding the lens -removed the BB from the top panel in the menu . why ? -camera switch and file delete button . "suddenly" don't understand where :) - tactilely extremely unpleasant device . compared to the predecessors of the series. very strange build quality: - the gap between the built-in flash and the body is very large! in the absence of moisture protection in the carcass, the consequences can be disastrous. -unpleasantly play the door of the memory card slot - plastic case looks like recycled materials system-software implementation: - rate of fire is seriously reduced - SD memory cards instead of CF (from experience I know about the unreliability of the first ones. In addition, constantly changing non-backward compatible card standards confuse) - Lack of lens alignment -management of external flashes god knows where -only one user mode - it is not clear why the "manual" exposure mode displayed on the program disk
