Truth be told, I don't use most of the stuff on my cameras, I bought the MZS because I wanted it not needed it. One of my nikon buddies had a F3 with a motordrive which if I remember properly hit 13fps, he never used it once. I would like the grid screen though. Don't really need a fast camera most of my packshot subjects don't really move that fast :) I do like the way it fits in my hand though, everything I need to reach with one hand I can, something I couldn't do with the F4. Best part is it takes pictures, all I really worry about in the final cut
