A couple of negatives...

...to positives!

I felt a bit peeved that the drive dial no longer contains the exposure bracketing setting for HDRs. Which meant diving into the menu every time I wanted to use it.

In addition, I couldn't assign the zoom-focus view to one of the forward function buttons.

BUT

With a bit of playing, I've managed to set bracketing to the front lever, and pinpoint zoom focus to a front function button! Huzzah!

The latter is particularly useful for manual lenses.

Cheers,

Paul
