👎 Cons
- The 24.24 MP sensor, while high-performance, may generate large file sizes requiring ample storage.
- High ISO 102400, while enabling low-light shooting, typically comes with increased image noise at its highest settings.
- The "outdoor friendly" LCD monitor offers brightness adjustment and night vision, but does not specify superior outdoor visibility in direct sunlight compared to other displays.
- Continuous shooting at six images per second for up to 40 images is good, but might be slower than some professional sports-oriented DSLRs.
