Unfortunately, this seems to be the way of the world. Of all the APS sensor sized DSLR's I have seen, the ist D seems to have the best one, but for sure, the LX is better. I would like to put a split image screen into my ist D, it looks like the screen may be removable, to improve manual focusing. I don't have many AF lenses, so this is important to me. William Robb
