Simon, you're dead right, Ryan rang me and was so fired up he had to come
and show me it! Wish he hadn't, I've now bought two!
Seriously, although I had seen Tanja's *ist-D before, I hadn't really played
with it, but I had a couple of hours with Ryan's yesterday, in which I got
to use several of my older lenses on it, including my Tokina-R 400/5.6, and
was impressed enough to decide it was time to bite.
The gold looks pretty good, IMHO, and the camera itself I found very easy to
use and nice to hold, so in a couple of days I'll be 'enabled', at least
camera-wise, even if I'm disabled financially!
