Of course there's no glass, but in my book, construction quality rates
highly, too. 

I feel this way about some polycarb lens bodies: they just don't have the
same "feel" that the older brass lenses did when using them manually.
Obviously, there's a big payoff in battery life (due to weight savings) on
auto focus cameras, and probably some manufacturing costs, but that "feel"
is important to me...
