Perfect product for any user!

In general, you can not describe everything. Sold my Canon 550 D the other day and bought this one today. I am satisfied. It remains to buy a normal lens .
By the way, when I watched it for the first time, I didn’t like it. It seemed bulky, the buttons were not convenient, and in general it wasn’t like that. But then I looked at it again, more carefully and decided to buy it.
I am satisfied with the purchase. We just need to deal with it a little more and read the instructions.
It's a bit overpriced. But it's a matter of time.

 I will add after a couple of months of use .

The lock button is disabled via the menu.
About video brakes during playback.
I had them, although the computer and video are not the most lame, vidyuha for example Sapphire HD5870.
I tried different programs, it didn’t help, the brakes were still present, in some programs they were small, but they were. I wanted to change the card to the 10th class. I have a class 6 card. But the other day I installed Windows 7 x64, before it was Vista x64. So, the brakes are completely gone.
I ran it through the standard WP-12 player, codecs from the x-64 codec pack, the latest. Everything works perfectly.

Pros

All the benefits of the Canon 550 D plus new features. Although the matrix is the same, for some reason it seemed to me that it shoots better with the same lens. I can judge because I had both a Canon 500 D and a Canon 550 D. They increased the working ISO, the rotary display is super. By the way, it works when shooting, like a pistol with a silencer .))) An interesting sound, deaf, quiet, not even familiar. It lies better in the hand than the Canon 550 D. It feels nicer, probably because of the rubber bands on 2 sides (550 rubber band on one side). And the design of the case for the right hand has become more convenient, they made a deeper notch for the thumb. Add. The screen is also comfortable with backlight. Wider range of settings compared to younger cameras from its lineup. Auto-focus is much faster and more accurate than the Canon 550 D. By the way, when you get used to the joystick, the control seems more convenient than the buttons of previous models. (but this is purely personal)

Cons

I think that its most serious drawback is that they ruined the mode switch wheel by sticking a lock button in the middle. It's really not convenient. It used to be better. You could switch with one finger. It's a matter of habit, of course, but I liked the old options more. In some review I read that this was done in order not to accidentally switch the shooting mode. I wonder how it can be accidentally switched? By the way, they removed the display off sensor when you bring the camera to your face. Not critical, but the included display sometimes interferes .
