10/10

Build quality
10/10
 
With its three-tone metal finish, small but perfectly formed controls and reassuring weight, it is both tough and beautiful
Handling
8/10
 
The Touch Control Dial is a great idea in principle, but may not suit everyone; there is an alternative way of navigating, though
Quality of results
8/10
 
Shooting in Auto, Manual or any of the scene modes yields generally great results. High ISO settings generate chroma noise
Value for money
8/10
 
Considering the amount of technology and the image quality you get with this camera, the price tag is very reasonable
Great for those who want to just switch on and shoot; equally good for users who demand more control
