This isn’t to say that you cannot have a lot of fun with it and it can be a great learning experience but it certainly has its limitations.

I'm not expecting miracles from the f/5 but it will be something different to give a go. Another IIS member has offered me his short newt too when I'm ready so I'll have another option. Everything at the budget end of the market is going to have its limitations but I'm ok with that for now while I'm still learning the ropes.
