I know, not a "Canon", but many people in this forum have been wondering about a good P/S as compared with the Sony and Canon equivalent, so I figure posting here would help.
After a couple of weeks on vacation with this camera (I chose the retro silver / brown one), here are my thoughts:
- Love the look of the camera
- Switching from AF to Macro was very tough with the leather case on
- IQ nice, but thought it would be better than the Sony RX and G7X (of which I have owned both). IQ was at or even slightly lower, especially at full zoom. Granted I was shooting only jpeg, so RAW shooting may have yielded better results.
- Manual control was laborious. Often my family was frustrated as I adjusted f-stop, shutter speed, and ISO to fit the situation. I shot manual as well with the Sony and Canon, and never felt as frustrated like this.
- I thought that the lack of touch screen wouldn't bother me, but for macro shots, it would constantly pick something to AF on that wasn't intended. Had to focus and recompose many times.
Overall, I would have to say I was slightly disappointed and will be looking for another P/S for family trips.
Here are some images to peruse:
