What other's say about this class:
"In-depth review from a respected pro. I relied on JG's review of my last camera (D750) and knew that I wanted the same level of detail for my new Sony mirrorless. Overall it's a great reference to have, but there are two major reasons that it's my favorite: 1. The most important things like metering and focusing are given extra-deep treatment, and 2. The video shows you exactly HOW to do everything, when he gives close-ups of the cameras screens and controls while he is demonstrating everything. The reference materials are excellent, and it's nice to have a map of all the menu screens." Don T.
Updated for Firmware Versions 1.05 to 2.00
