Revainrating 5 out of 5

I'm amazed! It was definitely worth the money!

In general, the camera is excellent, for 4 years of operation (almost 100,000 frames) the flight is normal, in combination with good glass, the right hands, no full frames are needed, but with the money saved, you can buy a lot of things, synchronizers, a couple of flashes, umbrellas. All good and successful shots! With its pros. It makes no sense to list them all, there are a lot of them, only in essence: quite a working ISO up to 1600, then it starts to soap and make noise, but not critical, critical after 3200. 24 Mpx is also very good! 1/320 flash sync made me very happy (I work in M ​​mode), since my old Nikon D80 had only 1/200 sync. By the way, here 1/400 is also quite working synchronization (provided that a manual flash is used), the lower edge of the curtain movement is almost invisible, which is generally gorgeous when using fast lenses! The D-lighting mode, which, for example, is not in the Canons and which very often helps me out a lot. 3D tracking mode, for shooting children is simply an indispensable thing. According to the video, the FullHD 50i mode is also pleasing, I often use it as 2 cameras for a general plan + Sigma 10-20 Has some cons A large central focusing point, because of this, sometimes the focus runs away, not very true, but it runs away, which cannot be said about more expensive devices, starting with the D600 . There are "freezes", for example, I took a couple of pictures, they are displayed, you look, but they are not on the map, you have to turn off the camera, and sometimes pull out the battery for a couple of seconds . Fortunately, such a problem appears very rarely, for every approximately 50k frames captured, it happened 2 times (I’m sure that the problem is in a low-speed card, Bought it back in 2022. It happens that when viewing it freezes, especially with a 32 GB card, it just hangs and everything, again, turned it off and on and you work on. You need to use only high-speed cards (checked by me personally), otherwise after 7-8 frames (RAW) in a row, it freezes and you press the shutter button and . does not shoot, hangs for 1-2 seconds (the process is busy writing to the card) I don’t like the picture in jpg format, as I didn’t set it up, everything is somehow wrong, therefore, I work strictly in RAW (NEF) format, and not 14 bits but 12, I don’t see the difference, but the difference is significant in weight. And lastly, the cover of the mains connector (small rubber band 1 * 0.5 cm), it is constantly opened with the little finger of the right hand, you just want to tear it off or stick it tightly (located near the battery cover, and from the side of the lens, look at the photo in 3D ). I solved the problem by buying a battery pack (DOF) and by the way, ordinary AA batteries in this pack work no worse than the original battery ($ 50), there are enough batteries for 1000 frames, now I don’t understand at all how I could work without this additional unit, comfortable grip, convenient shooting of vertical photos, and a plus in the device itself, there is always a charged original battery, and this is still 700-800 frames.
