I guess you'd rather have thin, rough cast housings that have a stipple finish rather than a nicely finished surface that looks like black lacquer or black chrome plating ... ? I don't care what cameras look like, to be honest, I care how they perform. But the L1 has a rather nice finish ... better than any of the Ricohs or even the Pentax K10D's nice polycarbonate finish. I have them both, use them every day for several hundred exposures, and I prefer the L1's finish and detailing in many ways. But as with other cosmetic things, de gustibus non disputandem.
