Yes. I was only a little concerned I might miss the metering mode and AF point selection switches, but from online reviews it doesn't seem that complicated to access those functions, after all. Oh, the video "jelly effect" had me a bit worried, too... but then again, the reports seem a bit exaggerated, and I don't do much video anyways.
Originally posted by DSims I wouldn't mind getting an 18-135 for only about $200 more either!
Yep. I don't really know how it happened, but I had added the camera to my amazon cart at about $1200, and a few days later it had dropped to $1000 (but listing still showed $1139). The only explanation I have, is that the price dropped while I wasn't looking and amazon dropped the price of the item in my cart, but then didn't raise it again.
I won't complain, of course
