  • Bracketing
  • Great image quality on default settings
Cons:
  • Can feel a little plastic-y compared to other entry-level cameras
  • Only a 2.7-inch LCD screen
  • No AF lock button
  • No external microphone input

A great little DSLR worth your consideration.

Updated 8/6/13 Even though this camera was released back in early 2011, it still is a wonderful and simple camera to use which delivers excellent image quality under any shooting conditions.
