It is amazing how N*kon shot themselves in the foot.
They come up with a wonderful idea and a great camera,
and then go and screw it all up with that eye poking
thing. I have tried the N*kon and it feels great in my
hands, I just can't stand at all that eye poking
winding lever; why oh why in the world would they put
in such a cruddy design flaw? I mean its like you
designing the best car ever and then putting the
accelerator on the passenger side. That and the fact
that it has no spot meter. If N*kon ever can get the
hint that trying to poke out the photographer's eye
with the winding lever is a bad feature and should be
dropped I'd buy into the system, as it stands now OM
has the vast majority of features I want with no
enormous flaws
