Pros + Best image quality is at the limit of FullHD
+ Many manual controls
+ sharpness and colors practically at the upper limit of AVCHD
+ Many manual controls
Cons - fiddly operation
- too small wide-angle
- No Zebra
- Manual focus very poor
- No zebra function
- no 1/25 sec. shutter speed in cinema mode
- small wide angle
- manual focus control badly implemented
Conclusion In this price class currently no rival offers better image quality and more controlsHowever, compromises must be made in terms of wide angle and in the handling, especially the focussing.Like its predecessors this cam satisfies with its very good image sharpness and the good manual controlsThe small wide-angle and missing zebra-function must be critizised.In comparison some competitors have notably better displays (Sony SR11/12) and more external manual controls (Sony SR11/12, CX11, Panasonic HS100, SD100).
