The bad: No raw-plus-JPEG or TIFF mode; kit lens is a slow f/5.6 at longest focal length.
The bottom line: A compact design, flexible power sources, and a strong feature set make this a digital SLR for the on-the-move photo enthusiast.

Opinion:
Dun think I would enjoy the dSLR experience that much if i had bought a Canon 350D, Olympus E-300, Nikon D70 or Nikon D50. I just love the form factor...
