Yes. It is an excellent camera. See:

Avoid all but the best sellers, like bhphotovideo,
cameraworld, adorama, profeel, and a VERY few others...
Low prices are the giveaway that you WILL "pay though
the nose" for extras you will not be able to buy the
camera without - better to pay the same at a better
dealer, one that will stand behind the product if you
have problems in the first week (check out new gear
thoroughly IMMEDIATELY - do NOT assume "new" means
"defect-free"...).
