Cons: X=1/180th, Film Advance Speed of 2.5fps, Line AF CCD Sensors
Summary: I previously wrote a "not recommend" review here and a copy of the review is kept here at the bottom. However, after my purchase of this camera, when I found a very good offer at US$705 last week, I'm starting to appreciate very much how wonderful my ... read more
