Handling is an issue. One reason I don't like Altoids-Tin P&S's or M-series bodies. They're just too bloody small to handle nicely. I've also found that large bodies and small lenses can be awkward to work with. This led me to buying Nikon's largest mid-speed 50 for my F2a, my pancakes were just too little for it. -- M.
