You put out a full meal deal camera with missing features, no matter how redundant, and DPReview will lambaste you. I had never used Hyper P mode before this camera. I fell into it quite easily though. Really though, it's not a replacement for Av or Tv controls. Sometimes you just want to lock in a partiular shutter or aperture and let the camera do it's work.
