One could still ignore the electronic
range finder output, or if batteries are dead,
and focus using the split image which could still
be left in place. --Tony Vezza

Tony,

I thought about that technology as well. As I get older, it has more
attraction. I see no contradiction other than higher expense and a possible
slippery slope to total AF with a degradation in quality never to be
reversed. We should be careful. We might get what we think we want.
