4.  The separation of metering & af point selection (to the left and
right of the eyepiece)
seems very practical.  Far better than going through the menu.  This
would be nice to
have on the 135-format DSLRs.

This is also a continuation of the 645 interface. However, I don't think the
button on the right side is actually a point selection. I think it's a choice
between large and small metering area for the matrix pattern. Also, I think the
metering mode selection ring should have had a small handle to make it more
accessible. The way it is now is just like on the *istD, which is very fiddly.

I think it is the same as the MZ-5n interface: spot; CW; matrix.
