New to photography and, right out of the box, this camera was easy to use. Pictures are sharp and crisp. Bought for travel and after our first trip, packed easily and was very lightweight. I have so much more to learn but, very happy so far.

As an amateur photographer with a beginner understanding of shutter speed, aperture, and ISO, this is a great camera. I’ve had it for about 2 months and really enjoy taking photos with it. When I can get the settings right, the photos turn out great with a lot of detail. I will say that if you’re looking into getting this camera, just know that it specializes in photography and not videography. The auto focus when filming is not the best.
That being said, I love all the mechanical features that are easy and quick to adjust settings in the moment. While it is a bit pricier, I think this camera does what it is good at really well and will definitely excite anyone looking into trying photography at a pre-professional level.
I’ve attached some example photos I’ve taken with the camera:

I did A LOT of research before buying this camera. Looking to turn my hobby into a career without investing $6000 in a new camera body, and this is where I landed.
The good:
So far, everything is as expected. The body is a nice size for a smaller person like myself. It’s light and easy to hold for an extended period of time. This camera is full frame and lowlight capable, which makes it a great fit for portraits. The kit lens is actually decent, although I’ve also invested in the nifty fifty and prefer that immensely. This is incredibly user friendly, especially where the exposure triangle is concerned. If you are new to photography, this is an exceptional tool to begin with.
The bad:
Whether it’s weather sealed or not is debatable- I’ve read yes and no and am too nervous to venture out in snow and rain. Additionally, this is NOT a great camera for action shots. If you plan to shoot sporting events or anything in motion, keep looking. Most frustrating for me thus far: the user guide sucks. It doesn’t detail how to transfer photos, and isn’t much help as far as actual use is concerned. Luckily, there are an ample number of tutorials on YouTube that have made it a piece of cake to work with.
Regardless of the bad, this is a great bang for your buck. Nice quality, very easy to use, and tons of lens options. I would recommend this to anyone looking to get started with a professional camera.

This camera is a big leap from my Nikon D80, in terms of technology and ease of use. Stellar bang-for-buck if you’re looking for a full size sensor. The battery life is short though, get at least one spare to bring with you.

A GREAT price for a full frame sensor! I am very happy with this camera, although it doesn’t have some features that more expensive cameras have, this camera delivers amazing quality photos. There is nothing else that can beat this camera at this price point. You won’t be buying this for the video features, but if it’s great photos that you want, you are buying this camera.

Camera has been amazing for the year I’ve had it. No flaws and hasn’t let me down once! Incredibly capable and more than what you need for a beginner. I thought I was an intermediate shooter and that this camera would hold me back, but it was quite the opposite. The RP helped me grow my skills more and use just one camera for all my needs. For the price point the camera is beyond perfect and meets every need.

Have been very happy with this camera. Great quality for the price. Definitely a good starter camera for photography. Battery life is a little low. A good idea to buy extra batteries.
