Looks very interesting indeed, especially their method of getting higher
dynamic range which seems unique to me. And I sure like the idea of having
manual zoom.

Now if only it's not too pricey . . .

I prefer a manual zoom.



And you probably preferred manual focusing when AF was just introduced.

You do understand the camera being discussed *has* a manual zoom, right?

It so happens that my zoom lenses are all manual. I still use my Coolpix
since I converted in to IR and prefer a manual zoom. I use autofocus for
wildlife, but for my macro work and landscape work prefer manual focus
for exact control. Exactly what is wrong with that.

Autofocus is a tool to be used when appropriate.

Certainly. What makes you think I don't?

I was voicing my agreement with someone else's preference: not
implying a criticism.

OK. The previous comment or two led me to wonder if that was understood.
