Comment:
I have owned this camera since it came out and have never an issue with it. I use it mainly to take macro shots, landscapes and pictures of my kids, including lots of sports photography. With my IS telephoto lens I can get some great action shots. Like that it has a RAW + jpeg option which allows me to have quick photos I can share, while giving me a chance to really work with the photo if I want.

Comment:
Used 35mm film until my wife bought me this gem. I do architectual photography and I have to say I am blown away. It has an intuitive interface, holds a charge forever and can give you just about any shot you want without moving up to a more expensive full frame camera. The trick is to buy good glass for it. The stock lenses are fine but this thing shines bright when you put a high quality lens on it.

Comment:
I use the Canon for everything: sports, family, travel, etc. Nice and bright viewfinder (I'm old school and prefer to bring it up to my eye to shoot.). Excellent lens selection and quality. I only use the video for emergency use. Been shooting Canon since 1966 and have never been disappointed.
