Birders and wildlife shooters will appreciate the added feather and fur detail etc. I thought that the power zoom feature may be useful from. I did a number of tests to see if these fears were justified.

What I discovered was that I had to work reasonably hard to get a microSD card to fly out of the card slot on the V3. Even when the card door was pointed down at the floor, in the vast majority of cases when I activated the spring ejection mechanism, the card would not fly out of the camera. It was only when I only pressed on just the edge of the corner of the microSD card that I could actually get it to eject completely out of the camera. To my amazement, I was able to get 7images before the battery ran completely down! If I hadn’t done this test personally I would not have thought that this was possible.

It was a bit finicky to install and I found that it loosened up a few times during my time with the V causing a lack of shutter function. I did not like the detachable battery grip at all. The control wheel seemed somewhat cheaply made and did not feel as precise or smooth operating as the other function wheels on the Vbody. On the plus side, the grip does provide an additional function button and adjustment wheel. The image with the detachable EVF was larger, a bit brighter and had more detail than the image produced by the V2’s EVF.

I found the V2’s EVF rendered colors more accurately as the V3’s EVF seemed to wash them out. This happened mainly with yellow hues which looked quite subdued in the V3’s EVF. One of the features that I loved with the EVF of the Vis being able to off the rear panel by using the button on the side of the EVF (a note of thanks to Photography Life reader Aaron Shepard for teaching this ‘old dog’ a new trick by pointing out that the rear panel can also be disabled on the Vby using the DISP control). Unfortunately, having a detachable EVF means that when it is installed users will not be able to use a hotshoe-mounted flash or. This may be a deal breaker for some potential buyers.

Generally, the bigger (and newer) the sensor, pixel pitch and photosite area, and the smaller the pixel density, the better the camera. If you want to see how Vcompares to other cameras, click here.
