I still use this same camera today. I’ve swapped a few lenses out from original but I agree fairly decent camera for what it is. I got it as an introduction to the camera world as opposed to using a typical iPhone camera. Thank you for your feedback. 👍🏽✌🏽
It is a good, cheap, underrated camera providing that one upgrade the firmware, shoot in raw, and optionally calibrate the color in Lightroom (I use spyder checkr 24). The jpg quality is not that good, especially regarding the color, and auto WB is not consistent indoor, and using fast lenses is highly recommended in low light to compensate for lack of any stabilization, IBIS or OIS.
@@Andyideas You are welcome. One thing to add, you are right about the kit lens, it is very good. I have three M1 + 12-40mm kit lenses, all three of those lenses are good, and one copy is as good as my panny pancake 12-32mm, which is also a very good copy, sharp edge to edge. I also have a xiaoyi prime lens 42.5mm/f1.8, a very good copy that beat even my panny 42.5mm/f1.7 (an average copy) in term of sharpness from edge at any apertures. And the best part is I got that lens for just about USD 60 here in my country (south east asia).

Thanks for the comment. I am also still using this camera to do my UA-cam thumbnails and stills.

Thanks for the extra info. I keep it with me in my Truck. It does a fair job for a cheap camera. I appreciate the comment
