For me that is definitely one of the best features. I know a lot don't
like the shutter speed ring in that position, but I do.
I think if it came to replacing my OM system (Blasphemy!), I'd be hard
pressed to find a replacement with which I was comfortable. These days I
just don't like removing the camera from my eye to locate a top mounted
shutter speed dial.

While I like my shutter speed ring mounted on the front of the camera where
it is on my OMs, I must say that when one is used to the knob on top of the
camera, they dont have to remove the camera from their eye to change it
either. When I was learning on my fathers nikons, I had no problem
counting clicks. When he bought me my pentax spotmatic, I managed with it
just as well.
I do like it at the front though.
OK, I'll shut up now.
