Do *you* prefer rec.photo.digital.slr or rec.photo.digital.slr-systems?


Yes.

The distinction is pretty superficial. SLR by definition refers
to cameras with mirrors and optical viewfinders through the lens.

Whether the lens is removable or not is a bit of an irrelevancy.
"ZLRs" (which should just remain in rec.photo.digital) are not
SLRs if they have electronic viewfinders.

Pretty simple. If you want to discuss lenses or paraphernalia
in r.p.d.slr, then why should that be a problem? It doesn't
need to be defined as "systems" to include that.
