My Review

This camera is fantastic, as in ease of use on auto and the variations available on manual settings. I was new to DSLR and found the interface very intuative and easy to follow. My only criticism would be the lack of kit options for the novice to purchase, you need some knowledge or substantial help deciding what lenses to buy, unless your budget is unlimited.
