Unsure I was clear - I never mentioned a "separate" dial. A dedicated one is enough I agree. And I find it not only conveniently placed but also firm enough not to randomly move at its own will (sic)

What I also meant was that there are three ways to check whether it has been rotated by accident or for a previous shot, or not. No self excuse accepted if I screw the shot ;-)

I hate my D700 for that unmarked flying wheel BTW. Accidents also happened with the L1.

Hope this clarifies my intent.

I have for years regretted that my cameras didn't have as easy as my contax's a compensation dial, even the Leica R's were so-so. The fujis provide just that; it's accessible and can be "blind"- adjusted while you're framing. Also, you can check the adjustment on the top plate while lifting the camera to your eye (or later either in the VF or on the back screen)

I don't see a need for a separate dial. As you say, the setting is right there on LCD and EVF.

With my two control wheel cameras, E-M5 and GX7, one of the wheels is always EV compensation, my finger can always find it, and I can watch the setting change as I do it. I personally don't feel that a separate dial would be useful.
