I have been using this camera for about just over a year. I have used it in multiple scenarios uses that vary from portraits to landscape/wildlife. Now, the pictures I have taken with this camera are amazing in quality, color, tones, just about any criteria ... but (there's always a BUT)! Eventhough I am not a professional, I am not a newbie either and one of the biggest frustrations I've had is that sometimes it just wont shoot a picture no matter how many times or how long you push the shutter button, I've had to change the focus to stimulate the camera to take a picture which works on ocassions. It is really frustrating specially because some moments wont wait t'ill the camera wants to shoot the picture. It's even more frustrating when we ask somebody to take a picture for example my wife and I on vacation somewhere and having the camera on full auto function and when you ask that someone that kindly accepts to take that picture they'll press the shutter button and the camera WONT SHOOT!!! I hate it and have to end up apologizing to that someone who was doing us the favor. Then I grab it (still in full auto function) and still wont shoot no matter how many time you press the button. I've been forced to shut it down and turn on again which sometimes aleviates the problem of not shooting a bit and/or have to change focus (which changes the depth of field of course to maybe something I dont want to capture) but it helps in "stimulating" the camera to want to start shooting. I should add to this that I am one of those persons who take EXTRA CARE of stuff like this and have never exposed this camera to any damage whatsoever so I have no idea if this will go away or if I will have to live with it or if I will just have enough at some point if I happen to continue missing photo opportunities just because it doesnt want to shoot when I need to and hence end up selling it or trading or what ever .... Still, when it takes pictures, they are amazing! What a dilemma ......
