I think I have to agree with your opinion on the limitations of the
Viso.. mine will stay put on the copy stand. I happily carry my trusty
M4, good to the touch, quick to raise and shoot. My wife, however,
recently moved up to the Nikon F100... what a beautiful camera! I
don't mind two bodies, especially when there are two bodies to carry
them <S>.
