Well, I will be brutally honest. I actually like the visual design aspect of Sony more than ZFC. I like the design, the muted silver finish. Viewfinder looks like an afterthought unresolved design but other than that, it looks sexy. it can be few steps simpler to be at the level of Minolta CLE. Or may need. A drastic step, a la Apple level simplicity. However, clearly, it is a piece of industrial design I respect more than a reference to the past in an easy way out manner I see in Zf. IZf is not a horrible design, it is not ugly, but I don’t see any rigor in the design itself. . Nikon, in my little world, has never won ‘ good design’ award from me. They have won ‘amazing camera’ award, not the design award. I love Nikon for what they do with the camera, and that is why I wanted to use Nikon D70. Aesthetically , they are ‘meh’, usually a B to A- at best for the aesthetics. Sony is usually A- to some As. Like this one, to me, is a solid A. Zf is a B+ .
All of this, of course, is subjective and has nothing to do with whether I will buy the Sony. That requires Form to meet functions at minimum, and if I were looking to change platform or not, which I am not.
