Frankly, I find these differences overrated anyway. Maybe that is due to the
fact that I am no professional - but then if I was one, I would hopefully be
able to train myself enough to master the particular oddities of *any* (one)
camera's user interface.
I do find these differences interesting, sometimes amusing, part of the
fun - but really nothing that would stop me using a camera.

What I find annoying is when the layout of a camera (combined with my own
forgetfulness) leads to mistakes - like setting an exposure correction
factor on an ME and not to reset it for the rest of the film. Or switching
the *ist D to ISO 1600 and forget about it...

I'd still say that compared to my other favourite brand (Rollei), Pentax
cameras are very straightforward to use.

Not for all of us.
