Pros: Ergonomics, professional body, sturdiness, viewfinder, double slot, articulated display

Cons: Noise over ISO 800-1600, articulated display

Opinion: Bought in 2018 as a "battle" machine body at a price almost ridiculous, has not disappointed at all expectations. A reflex designed for professionals, without frills and with all the keys in the right place: the 10 MPX sensor produces excellent images, very workable and with a good recovery of the lights. But the point of force majeure is certainly the ergonomics, which I have not found on any other camera body (even recently) that I tried. The faults (if so we can call them for a machine of 2007) are the tightness at ISO 800 and higher ("Fault" of the sensor format 4/3) and the articulated display that can be both a value and a defect. Another fact to consider is the total abandonment of the 4/3 system, with prices of the optics of good level still too high. A machine absolutely recommended especially to match with telephoto lenses.

Pros: Ergonomics, stabilizer presence, tropicalization, double memory slot

Cons: High ISO noise (1600 - 3200 ISO)

Opinion: A camera that, in my opinion, can still be said today.rnForte of the tropicalization, the presence of the stabilizer and the yield on incredibly faithful colors, is a camera that makes and will always be part of my kit.rnUni flaw, but normal for the year in which it was developed and put on sale (2006/2007), it is high noise at high ISO; we say acceptable at ISO 1600, exaggerated at ISO 3200. rn
