I want to take a look at it when I have a chance. It might be just me, but after a certain age, optical viewfinders stopped working as well as they used to. I can now see things in an EVF better than even in a really good OVF like that of my MX. After I realized this, it was a matter of trying the amazing OVF of the X-T[1,2,3] to not want to look back.
I do miss the K3 sometimes, that was peak DSLR for me, and I did own a KP for a few years after that. j -- Juan Buhler - http://www.juanbuhler.com On Fri, Apr 2, 2021 at 1:25 PM Mark C <pdml-m...@charter.net> wrote: > On 3/31/2021 12:52 PM, Bill wrote: > > > > The fixed LCD screen was planned from the get go.
