Much more intuitive and easy to navigate.
"Intuitive" is only another way of saying "what you are used to". If you think Av mode is done by moving the aperture ring on the lens, then you're going to have a problem switching rapidly between Av and Tv (or program) which is what Hyper Program mode offers. It depends on what you want; if you want a camera body that works just like a K-1000 with all your old manual focus lenses the MZ/ZX bodies are great, but personally I found the advantages of the new Hyper modes far outweighed that. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
