The most important plus for me is the compactness and low weight of the whale. Before that, I had an amateur DSLR, despite the excellent pictures, with its heaviness, it overshadowed more than one trip for me. It’s convenient to take Sonya with you not only for the sake of photographing some event, but also just for every fireman. It does not require a separate bag. I put it in a case and in my usual backpack. On the other hand, the kit does not provide a good focal range, so I have a 50-200mm zoom, its dimensions and weight are appropriate . Of my native budget lenses, I liked the 35-ka. Sharpness is good, beautiful bokeh, focusing speed is better than on a whale, compactness.
