Hi Terri. When we wrote this post, there were different camera packages available. The one we got included the pancake lens and the standard one. You probably bought the one with the single lens. Not sure the pancake lens is even offered with the camera anymore however you can purchase it separately. It’s a great all around lens, however you can’t zoom in with it so it’s limited to what you see is what you get.

Hi Mimi. I can understand your desire for finding something not to love about this camera however this post was never intended to be a technical breakdown of the camera. We’re also not professional photographers and we don’t have dozens of DSLR cameras or years of experience to tell you about it’s chrome aberration or focus abilities. There are dozens of other sites out there that have done that already and the interesting thing is, the camera is still highly rated on all of them.

After owning it for a few months now, I can tell you a few cons that people might find. If you have large hands, I can see the grip being a little small. I have average sized hands and the grip feels great to me so that isn’t a con for either of us. I also think a WiFi option would have been great so I could easily grab a few pictures from it on the go. We’re considering picking up an Eye-Fi card just for that reason. Finally, an in camera panoramic mode would have been nice as well so we could take panoramic shots on the go as opposed to doing it in post processing.

Besides for those, the fact remains this is the best camera we’ve ever owned. We love that it’s small, fast, takes great pictures and is easy to use for us non professionals. If you have a problem with that verdict you’re welcome to your own.

As to our 45 jobs post, it was definitely not a paid or sponsored post and at over 3000 words it took a lot of time to compile that list. If you have a problem with any of the jobs you don’t have to do them. It was simply created to help give others some ideas of what they can do on the road.

As to your search for perfection, Leo Tolstoy summed it up nicely I think. “If you look for perfection, you’ll never be content.” Just saying..
