Thanks for the nice comments.

Yeah no complian on this cam for landscape other than I miss the iso 80 for 1/3 stop longer exposure. The high iso performance is not as good as my the other cam but not an issue for lanscape shots.
However for birding it really lose out on features.
It doesn't have my fav TAv setting, changing settings is not str8 fwd as those buttons found in my the other cam.
The shuttle sound is much louder which is not good for birding use. it also lacks the top LCD screen for useful info.
The resolution is much lower, 25% lower (only 12Mp) & this is an disadvantage for shooting smaller birds from a far distance.
I got much lesser keeper shots shooting brids yesterday.

But for less than 1/2 the price it's good for other photography.
So I only get this cam for landscape & less birding.
Once my cam back from service will probably sell it off.
