I have just purchased this camera with its lens. It is astounding, nothing short of amazing. The lens especially I found to be sharp as a tack with really nice contrast. Of course it has manual plus aperture or speed priority plus a whole bunch of settings I have not explored yet. (I'm an old time and like set my own exposures... It has a number of different "Spaces" to work in too. Some have sharpening, some have enhanced saturation etc., I have worked in the Adobe RGB colour space and it's been very good. I have been a Nikon user for 35 years and have kept 2 old F3 bodies (Because of the removable prism and focusing screens) and my lenses, but I am now a big canon fan. Can't wait to get my hands on some more canon lenses! I have some indoor images shot at a jazz club here called "Swingers" they can be seen on my website.
