might be nice to use, but it sure isn't "pretty" … looks like a modern retro 
Camaro: it has some of the line, but it's all bloated and festooned with 
gee-gaws. To my eye, the chrome is particularly ugly looking. or rather, 
"industrial faux".

but if it works right and is good in the hands, it could be very nice. 

I don't know what the camera pretends to be. I know Nikon marketing teased 
everyone with the "pure photography" sequence, but i don't know what "pure 
photography" is supposed to be anyway. I guess the romantic notion of wandering 
around the Scottish countryside in dramatic light with a 50mm lens implies 
something to someone, but to me it says "cold, probably wet, taking pictures 
before I freeze to death."
