When I used an istD a number of times last summer, I found the manual
white balance controls counterintuitive and a huge pain in the butt.
Manual white balance on the DS2 seems to be brilliantly simple, and
even though it's now in a menu instead of on a little button, I find it
much easier.
I admire simplicity; I hate menus. And yet I find most of the controls
on the DS2 easier to work with because I don't have to change either my
head's position or the camera's position to look at the top screen and
those dials -- I just have to take my eye away from the viewfinder to
see the rear screen.
Anyways, I was just wondering if I was the only person who felt like
that, especially about the manual white balance. As someone who bought
a 67 over a 67II and who really admired the MZ-5, I never really
thought I'd favor a menu/joystick combo over a button for anything.
