The following opinions have been automatically translated with Google Translate.
Pros:Excellent image quality (for the compact category or bridge with similar sized sensors), versatile and robust, good viewfinder and monitors (for the time), size and weight appropriate to the product (compact and well balanced).
Cons:Grip a little sacrificed for hands as big as mine (much improved with the P850 a couple of years later) and huge operational slowness compared to digital or analog reflexes.
Opinion:The production date of the DX6490 has been since 2003 and not since 2007 as reported in the datasheet; I have owned one since May 2005 still fully functioning after more than 14 years and thousands of shots. It's the machine that made me want to photograph after a few years of break from analog reflexes, together with the younger sister DX6340 bought in February 2004. I remember the pleasant surprise of the image quality that came out of this "technological toy". It's not at the level of slides I was shooting with my SLRs, but it was outstanding considering the tiny sensor it mounts. On 20x30 prints it is impossible to see the difference even with the best reflex and the best film of the time. Not least the pleasure of traveling comfortable and light with a high-quality optical 10X zoom in a miniature-reflex-like. I took many beautiful photos with this machine and after a few years I returned to the sLRs in digital version with extreme satisfaction. Every now and then when I want comfort and lightness I still use it with satisfaction. After all, what matters is the fun and images that we can produce, beyond the tool used.
