Footage looks quite contrast-y and overall it is a simple enough camera to use. HOWEVER, aperture and white balance are adjusted through a menu feature only, rather than a dial or switch on most other cameras. The ergo’s suck on the thing and without a shoulder rig with a display, handheld work is uncomfortable and clumsy at best. The focus/ zoom rings on the kit lens are also in reverse position to many other cameras – a small niggle but it does get frustrating.

All in all it is a decent camera, but getting your rushes at the end of the shoot is more exciting than using it. And given the price tag, it is still a smarter buy to go for something like the BMCC.
