While the lens was impeccably sharp and the camera was nice and solid, I found the ergonomics with the little push-buttons unacceptable. In addition, for my shooting, which often involves the need to turn off the flash, it was very inconvenient to have to push the flash mode button 7 (seven!) times to turn the flash off--and it reverts back to the default AUTO setting when you turn the camera off and back on. Again, the optical and mechanical quality of the camera was excellent, but the ergonomics are in my opinion really bad. This may or may not be an issue for you, depends on your style of photography.
