Advantages: Everything - a smart camera.

Disadvantages: None known yet

I have had this product now for 4 months and its a fabulous camera. I used to do photography more professionally some years ago, but my family commitments meant more time with them so i dropped the pro side. As a semi pro camera for the beginner its great. All the aspects of the camera is easy to use and easy to understand. The weight of the camera is classed as an SLR, but its a lot lighter than some i have used. It sits neatly into the palm without any difficulties.
I used it at a recent football tournament for the action shots and in the sports mode, they have come out clean, crisp and presice.
I have also used it at night without flash for some work photos and they again came out spot on.
If anyone needs a camera that is versatile, easy to use and with great results then but this.
When buying the kit, try to get one with the extra zoom lens, as this is invaluable. Please also note that the one down side to this is that canon increased the price by £30 for the camera kit and when the new stocks of the lens come through they will not have the image stabilizer function with the lens. A little fact that the guy in Currys told me.

Summary: An excellent camera for the none professional
