Not much plastic in sight. Just metal, high level composite and rubberoid . After three years of intensive use my S5 still looks nearly unmarked which I cannot say about my SL which looks like it has been through the wars, nor about the SL3 whose flimsy covering gets torn up by fingernails. Perception and brand bias can certainly be deceiving. I have to agree on the SL. My sl2s that is not even a couple of months old, already has the silver coming through on the edges and at the bottom of the screen. I do not baby gear but I'm not throwing it around either. I think the build is really solid but the finish is not.  Edited May 15, 2024 by costa43 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
