It also has a somewhat unnecessary "Hold" switch, AF button on the back
panel, and a push button to illuminate the display, not to mention the
databack! (Not that I don't like it, but the MZ3 is almost as simple as the

I'm surprised you would consider an illumination button unnecessary.
Or are you just listing buttons? Not only does it illuminate, but
through PF function can be made to turn on modeling mode on the new
flash and confirm wireless operation. Hardly an unnecessary button.
