 Alexios Kosmidis.'s recommendation | |
Very functional, easily operated, excellent features, high portability.
It's small weight drives you to choose only light lenses, so that can be a balance with the light body. ATTENTION: Avoid the kit. The lens offered is of very poor quality. Buy the body and a good lens instead.
With regard to prices, Dynax5 belongs to the entry point SLR class. But, when we look at features, there can be no comparison with the others (F65, MZ-7, CANON 300 & 3000 etc)!
Dynax 5 can only be compared with higher class cameras such as Nikon F80! But, in this case too, Dynax5 has 7point AF that F80 doesn't!
I have had it about a month (I also own a Dynax404si, a Nikon F60 and a ZENIT 22), and I am totally pleased.
