As a D30 owner I have to second this completely. The camera is very very
difficult to use for circumstances in which events are changing rapidly. The
autofocus takes this side of forever - sometimes SECONDS in low-light or
low-contrast situations. The Nikon D1X is much better. More than much.

But the M6 is vastly superior.
