What I like is the size. You get a large sensor camera with full control and interchangeable lenses in a body as small as a lot of point-and-shoot cameras. Then the other side of the coin is the controls are a bit close together. Not a big deal but it can slow you down at times. Image stabilization is a bit soft. What is incredibly fun, is adapting my old leica lenses to it. My current favorite is an old screw mount Cannon.
This is the first first camera I've had without an actual viewfinder. And because of that I find it difficult to consider this camera is serious photographic tool. At arms length, I feel, you lose intimacy with the image. Because of that I find composition clunky and slow. But then that's probably just me.
