Absolutely. Anyone buying a camera should spend a lot of time playing with
it first. If it doesn't feel good to handle, you won't have it in your hand
when you need it, and your pictures will suffer. It's almost more important
to have a camera that feels right than it is to have superlative optics (but
not quite).
Of course, I suspect I'm preaching to the choir here...
