Thank you, Mat. I did as you have indicated...all is a-okay :-) While I am on the subject, I must say that this body has a nice feel to it--even without a lens attached. I like the small grip piece, and, overall, the body seems to have a nice balance, size (fairly compact), and weight. My lens should arrive sometime next week. I settled on a used A 50/2. I have this lens on my ZX-M (though that one I bought new with the camera).
Before I forget: do LCDs wear out? I tend to be one who likes to keep things for a while, and I am wondering how much mileage I should expect from the little screen on my SP (and ZX-M). With my KX, this, of course, is not an issue...although I like the extra speed (1/2000) on the ZX-M and SP.
