Design & Quality
From my checks, both quality and design are good. This is maybe the first camera I managed to open the battery closure and get the battery unit out and assemble it back, without a need to inserting it with excessive force. Some manufacturers tend to design the battery housing dimensions very, very tight, which causes the battery to pass most of the heat to the camera body. With this product I didn’t have this issue.
