An exceptionally good weatherproof system camera. For particularly high demands. With very good electronic viewfinder and network function. All-round good, very good monitor to fold (270 degrees) and swivel (180 degrees), fast camera, basic handles work very easily, many extras and functions. Disadvantage: very expensive.
