Also I didn't see if there was an eyepiece shutter or not. Certainly hope
so, as I thought that was a glaring omission on the F100 (considering the
N90 came so equipped). Shame about the loss of interchangeable finders, but
perhaps there just wasn't much of a market for such; and as you said,
probably easier sealing. Glad to see the manual rewind option and mirror
lock-up.

Hmm. The prism is now permanently mounted, so they lost at least one
F5 feature. I suspect that the improvements in size, weight,
alignment, and dust sealing were just too tempting...
