Now I know it's not just me that's annoyed by this. In fact more than
annoyed, I once BROKE a Nikon camera I'd rented, costing me £200, simply
by trying to attach the lens in the correct clockwise manner. The
rental company was not amused.

Agree with you about the bayonet, but FWIW the Fuji zoom goes the same
way as the Nikon. Clockwise is the positive direction, going out.

Never had a Fuji DSLR, but I won't be buying Fuji since two compact
cameras I bought have nowhere near the MP they claim.


Which compact cameras,


The Finepix S1000FD and the similar one made before that which claimed 6MP.

and you know this how?


By looking at the pictures they produced obviously.


Looking at the pictures they produced will not tell you anything about the
sensor, or its specs. A more thorough examination of the image files is
going to be needed. Besides, you are talking about a long defunct camera.
