Why they did it that way I'm not sure, but its one of the reasons I bought the N70 instead of a "C" body. I came from a Yashica FR1 that worked the apreature priority the same way. It seems to make sense to me to be able to move the aperature ring with one hand while the other hand is on the body and depressing the shutter release to activate the meter and focus. I can also hit the AE lock with the other hand. RStephen Winter [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://redshift.home.mindspring.com
