Strength:
The camera is a very well-made, precision instrument, and the cost for what you get is not unreasonable. The focus computer is easy to use. The camera has plenty of movements in every direction.
Weakness:
The camera is heavy, not for a studio work, where an appropriate tripod or stand can be found, but it can overtax weak tripods that you might carry in the outside world. Carbon fiber tripods have made a difference in this regard. I have used the camera for about 4 years in situations ranging from studio work and portraiture to lugging it up mountains for landscape work. It is heavy for the latter. The ample choices in movements really help in architectural work. The focus computer is a great help, but it doesn't eliminate the need for the user to understand the complexities of focusing. Not a beginner's camera. All in all, I'm very glad I could find one at a "bargain" price, and I would do it again. Customer Service Not needed yet. Similar Products Used: Cambo SCX |
