1. Metering System.
2. Manual Focus screens which are usable!
3. Viewfinder size.
4. Full-frame 36x24mm image capture area.
5. The lenses--oh, those lenses...
6. OTF flash control.
7. Camera shape promotes left-hand balancing.
8. Convertable (with or without motordrive)
9. OTF auto exposure.
10. Tactile control of all major functions.
11. Size.
12. Accurate auto-exposure in ultra-low light conditions.
13. Best feeling shutter-release around.
14. Interchangeability of all accessories between all bodies.
15. Fujichrome Velvia, Kodak Portra 160NC and Ilford Delta 400.
Hmm. Only one out of fifteen is medium. The rest is camera
-------------------------------------------------------------
Yes, only one of the fifteen is directly the medium but: the lack of OTF
flash control, OTF exposure control and lack of accurate auto-exposure
in ultra-low light conditions are all due to lack of OTF which can't be
implemented due to shiny digital sensors (or is it just moiré filters?).
Scarcity of full frame is due to the high cost of digital sensors.
