Clearly some will accept its faults while others will not. Some will live with the fixes and some will not. Some will voice an opinion but most will not. We could see your enthusiastic anticipation and then your sudden disappointment. Emotion is very personal and private. I don't see the reason for your manifesto now. It think your reasons for this dislike should be respected and remain your private thoughts. Enjoy your RD-1. For now I'm enjoying my M7.
