I'd think this would be pretty cheap to implement, and pretty standard these days (although I haven't really looked at an entry-level camera in years). If it isn't there, it's probably for marketing reasons. >I'm picturing a digital camera based on the MZ-60 or film *ist body. >As a matter of fact the film *ist is configured like a DSLR with a large >LCD panel (B&W) on the back. My wild guess is that they'll base the >Baby D on this body. Makes sense, as there isn't much else to base it on except maybe the ZX-M. There's no need for a new baby film body because that's what the *ist is. DJE
