The mechanical aperture ring is a thing of
the past. A continuously variable, microprocessor operated aperture
control is a much more desirable form of adjustment. You can compensate
for focal-length/aperture variations much more accurately this way.
I'd be better convinced by this statement if I could also continuously vary the aperture (and shutter speed) in manual mode like I can do on a large-format lens.
