Pros: The lens, IS, the size (smaller than an SLR), the myriad of modes
Cons: The size (larger than a compact); no raw, tiff or hotshoe for flash.
Bottom Line: Great travel camera. Amazing lens. Love IS. Notes about ratings: battery life and shutter lag minimal, but I use alkaline batteries and a 150x sd card.
