I'm with you on the MX. The viewfinder tells you all you need to know. Exposure from the LEDs, shutter speed from the wheel at the side of the display and aperture through the window in the pointy doghouse. The MZ-S viewfinder display is, quite frankly, rubbish. Slight exaggeration. I think it's more the way I hold my eye against the viewfinder. I don't always see the display at the bottom of the screen. The Super Program is way better. I don't have any problem with the position of that information. Funny, that.
