Comments[edit]
This camera is similar to the Nikon R 10 Super, with a smaller lens.
audadvnc: On my camera, the lens focus gets rather soft at lower f/stops, not very impressive for the reputation this model has. I don't know if it's a collimation issue or part of the design. With enough light it looks great. I like the feel of this camera handheld. It's metal cased and looks like it should last for a long time.
