I'm not of the mind that sharpness should be one of the controls that should find its way onto a primary control, contrast however... I found the E-10 a mixed bag, of course it's not really a fair comparison as the *ist D is much faster with any type of review or saving. However the mode control was well separated from the ISO selection (which was buried in the LCD menus), strangely a great deal of the *ist D controls are otherwise quite similar. When I first picked up the E-10 I couldn't believe the amount of buttons that were scattered across it's body however quite soon after I realized that they were generally quite well placed. I found that I could operate most controls without having to change my grip on the camera substantially. So we obviously have different takes on this interface also :-) Cheers, Rob Studdert HURSTVILLE AUSTRALIA Tel +61-2-9554-4110 UTC(GMT) +10 Hours [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://members.ozemail.com.au/~distudio/publications/ Pentax user since 1986, PDMLer since 1998
