I do not agree with those who write that the camera is ultra-light . Still, after an hour of dragging around the neck, there is some discomfort, because the camera weighs more than a kilogram with the lens. Photos are excellent in any conditions. ISO is quite working up to 6400. Then noticeable noises begin, but they are not so terrible. A kit lens is fine for beginners. Yes, it's a bit dark, but the background blurs decently and everything is ok at the focus points with sharpness. The build quality of the camera is excellent, only slightly backlash cover the memory card compartment. The video is also gut, but I didn’t shoot it much - I didn’t take the camera for that :) In general, for such an adequate price, it is quite a good device for beginners - I recommend it :)
