Whats the point in having comprehensive settings in each 'auto' mode that you have to tweak to get the best out of it?All other cameras I have had or used (Sigma DP3M, DP1X, Pentax K-7, Minolta 5D and G400, Nikon D7100/D90/D50 and others) have all been easy to use in comparison.
Answered above I think.
It can't be that much effort to spend a day or two with the instruction manual. I worry about people who buy something, can't be assed learing how to use it, post an opinion that IT is therefore crap (because they don't understand it) and then move it on for something easier.
No wonder the divorce rate is so high.
When I first got the Nikon D90, it was exactly the same...images were unsaturated and soft, grainy, focus occasionally inaccurate, highlights blown out, tripod based images blurry etc etc etc. I knew it was me tho is the point. Three days of tweaking about in the menus (no problem at all) had it set up as I wanted it, and now I don't even think about it.
