I thinl that should be labeled M8 and any fast action shooting... I  
agree with the framelines (they are a joke), the buffer (ridiculous),  
the depth of field (annoying)... I haven't had the other problems -  
except maybe for the filters (they do scratch easily when in dry,  
sandy and windy environment). The high ISO noise is a pita, but 160  
or 320 underexposed by 2 stops does the trick imho...

All the best from the south of France!
