I needed a camera for macros and this thing is amazingly clear and sharp

The image quality is great, the zoom is insane and this thing is so easy to use!

The good things about the camera are (1) very good lens in its class, especially macro photography, (2) possible to control the camera fully through user-defined buttons instead of menus, (3) raw format support, (4) very good battery life (after the bells and whistles have been turned off)
