I agree with Max that after a while (a couple of sessions) it becomes instinctive, even though you often have to press twice as many buttons as seem needed. Reviewing images is definitely more fiddly, but then just buy a couple of big cards and give up chimping! The extra fiddle is well worth it for the huge number of selectable AF points and the AF speed. I wouldn't recommend renting a 500 f4 unless you are prepared to buy one, they are stunning lenses...</blockquote>
