I know--just shutting off my engineering background in order to daydream a bit :) A nice (very nice) tradeoff would be to have a full frame viewfinder, even if the picture is not full frame. It could have framelines like a rangefinder, and would let you see around the picture you're about to take... BTW, this is in my mind one of the strongest reasons to want a full frame DSLR. Of course, the viewfinder in, say, a ZX5n doesn't look nearly as good as the one in the MX... j -- Juan Buhler http://www.jbuhler.com photoblog at http://photoblog.jbuhler.com
