One thing that I haven't heard much about that concerns me is the manual interface. It appears that it works much like a ZX-50 or 30. Which means there really is only one dial to spin. That changes shutter speeds. To change apertures, you have to hold in a button and spin the same dial. I have tried that and REALLY disliked it. Perhaps people attracted to it will rarely shoot it in manual mode?
The MZ-6 and MZ-7 works the same way if you don't use the aperture ring on the lenses.
Anyway, Nikon F75/65/55, Canon EOS 3000/300 and Minolta Dynax 4/5 uses the same method. One dial to turn for both aperture and shutter, one button to press to change between aperture or shutter.
The *ist D uses twin dials, so it's different.
Best wishes Roland
