I agree totally. I don't like the time lag of autofocus on P&S cameras;
the XA goes off immediately. And since I don't like on-camera flash, it is
annoying to me too, when the Stylus defaults to flash ON after being
closed. The XA is one of the greatest designs ever. I've had three photos
taken with my XA reproduced as double-page spreads in hardcover books. My
XA loves Kodachrome; I love my XA.
