Re: Vintage film cameras
I've got a Fuji X30, fixed zoom lens and no dial like that but similar otherwise. Feels like a real camera, if you will indulge me that. AF modes or manual focus via a lens ring, with a second lens ring for zoom. Roller wheel on the back, so depending on the mode, that and the (non-zoom) lens ring can do different things like adjusting aperture etc. in AF modes. And a viewfinder, dear God, how could I resist? The zoom ring always zooms, but is also used for on/off by zooming the lens into the body. Usual billion features but great lens, a lot of features are just a press or two away, and you can reprogramme some of the buttons or the ring/wheel. I think the only thing I would change is that it's "only" 12MP. Never thought I'd like a digi that much! Admittedly my main experience with them is point and shoot, or the odd over-complicated DSLR that someone would shove in your hands.
