Many appreciate the value for money, especially when paired with the RF 24-105mm kit lens, and note it's a great upgrade from crop-sensor DSLRs. However, common criticisms include a small and dim viewfinder, slow burst rate, limited 4K video autofocus, and poor battery life. Some users also report reliability issues and frustration with third-party lens compatibility.
