it was very good-could get 1/80 iso 100 f2.o on really bright days

get a tripod though for landscapes etc if you want to stop down

do a manual white balance for colour

re photoshop cost dont worry-search for the gimp-its free

can be a bit noisy but this one prints up well at 13X19 inch after some noise reduction-sold a few of these too.
