Advantages: Long battery life

Disadvantages: Heavy

Pros - Fantastic quality photos, lots of good settings and AWESOME battery life.
Cons - Heavy, expensive and confusing if you aren't used to cameras.

What a sexy piece of equipment! I have to admit I had my doubts when I at first saw the price tag on this. But after my partner talked me into it, I went ahead and took the plunge. I had a Nikon F60 before but this one really made my old faithful seem ancient and outdated. I loved the way it was easy to work out, and I didn't even need to go through the manual, just a little trial and error as well as common sense and we were ready to rumble. I use a a 28-105mm lens and its great for the basic photo, but looking into a wide angle lens in order to get a fuller shot.
You can get these cheaper now then when I got mine, so it is better value for your money, and I would recommend this product to any friend.

Summary: If you are used to cameras and the F series, then this is a good upgrade.
