I really do rate it. Had a few months now. Definitely a marmite camera.
My keeper rate has improved no end. dynamic range, fidelity and ‘signature’ are more than acceptable – I can rarely improve on out of camera jpgs – which oddly made shooting fun again – in a measured plan your shots ‘film days’ kind of way.
Some of it’s operating modes and focus hunting can be a bit slow or infuriating but once you work to it’s strengths – handling and results are a delight! I don’t find it as readily portable as s100 etc. in practice though (I deludedly kidded myself I’d carry it everywhere anyway 🙂 like s95 etc. anyway )
Seems odd but I’m now kind of fond of it’s foibles. I read somewhere to regard it as a pretty good lens – with a really quite good jpg widget box thrown in for free!
I only find I do candid or landscape with it if that helps. Lens doesn’t really work for full frame portrait style, but you prolly know that already..
