I disagree, Steve ... that extra bit of speed brightens the view thru the finder on these older cameras, which is an asset, especially when photographing during the "magic hours" or in the evening. Plus, a touch of softness may be most appropriate for many photographs. And the very limited DOF offers some creative benefits as well as some challenges. The world isn't always best represented by sharp images.
