This Is My First DSLR, And My First Review Here.
I've Only Owned This Camera For A Few Days.
So Far I'm Very Much So In Love With This Camera (And The 18-55mm Kit Lens).
-I'm Consistently Blown Away By The Image Quality Of The Images I've Taken.
-I Really Like The Small Size, And The Light Weight Of This Camera. It's A Very Easy Camera To Carry Around, And Fits Comfortably Into My Hands.
-The Shutter, ISO, And Aperture Settings Are All Very Easy To Adjust, And Easy To Read Both On The Giant 3 Inch Screen, Or In The View Finder Itself.
-The Live View Is A Very Nice Feature To Have For Still Life, And Macro Shooting.
I've Only Used This Feature A Few Times, But I Know I'll Get Alot Of Use Out Of It Once I Get A Macro Lens, And A Tripod. . .I Really Like Being Able To Zoom In On The Live Preview Up To 10% To Finely Adjust The Focus.
All In All I Honestly Couldn't Be Happier With This Camera.
It's More Of A Camera Then I'll Probably Ever Need, It's Well Built, Easy To Use, And There's Lots And Lots Of Great Quality Lenses, And Accessories For This Camera.
I Rated It A 9 Out Of 10, Because It Doesn't Have Any Weather Sealing, It Only Goes Up To ISO 1600, And The Body Is Made Of Plastic (though this is also good, as it makes it lighter).
