Dislike

It's a pretty much a plastic feel. A big dislike is the nearly impossible to find availability of fast compatible 85mm and longer fixed focal length portrait lenses unless you are willing to pay more for them than you spent on the camera itself. The camera does support AF only lens for autofocus, you must only mount only AF-S or AF-I lenses, and there's not many affordable fast portrait lens choices in that class
