Date might be more popular in Japan than in the U.S. I believe Pentax 
decided to have it as standard, was to save cost. It cost money to make an 
add-on, it's less expensive to include it with the body from start. Since 
they already had planned the LCD panel to be at the back, they could use the 
existing display instead of adding a new one.

I have no use for QD-backs, but I believe some may.

Best wishes,
Roland

In the US, only the 7E model can be had with the date option. It is a 
virtually worthless option for SLRs. Unless you have some very special need 
it is only for the P&S crowd. The date function will not sell more *ists 
vis-a-vis the Elan 7.

They're only $40 (not the E version) apart here, and the Canon name is 
worth $40 to a lot of people.


Do you compare date models? The *ist comes with a data back as standard, 
it can't be bought without one. You must compare with date models from the 
competition.

Best wishes,
