Doesn't take long.  I think this is a camera you will either bond with or
not  when you pick it up, or,  at least after you have shot a few pics
with it.  I know some can't stand its looks and it goes downward from
there. I wonder if it will turn out to be a  camera you either love or
dislike (I think hate is too strong a word)

BTW my wife made me take it out of the bed last night - the patting and
cooing got to her.  ;-)        No I didn't take it and go sleep  on the
couch, after pretty near 50 years she is still better than a camera, even
a Leica, OTOH  hmmmmmmmmm.

Have a good whats left of the weekend
