Features
7/10
 
There are impressive features to be found, but the lack of RAW shooting, rotational LCD and battery meter is a disappointment
Build quality
8/10
 
This is a sturdy and somewhat weighty camera, which feels robust and secure. The many dials and buttons feel very well built
Handling
7/10
 
Ergonomics are great here with everything you need to hand just where you would expect it to be, with no fumbling through menus to change oft-needed functions
Quality of results
7/10
 
The image quality is generally very good, though there are some issues with noise especially in low-light conditions
Value for money
7/10
 
A little pricey for a compact of this specification, but there are plenty of features here to justify the price
This is a solid performer suited to the competent photographer who needs maximum control
