Inexpensive, Excellent image quality and noise performance, Highly customisable, Manual focus with peaking assistance, Auto panorama feature
Small low resolution EVF, 16:9 proportion low res screen not ideal for stills, Playback button not in ideal location, No Wifi, but then neither do budget rivals, Miniature effect can't be applied to movies.
