Yup, my bad.
Personally, most modern DSLRs (and this is very true to Pentax) has, I believe, almost perfected the ergonomics, which, I think is very critical in this hobby. This Nikon DF will fail miserably, (just by looking at it) when it comes to handling vis-a-vis a K-5, K-3 or even a K-1. The modern DSLRs have certainly evolved and improved by a lot over the years when compared against these "retros". But, again at the initial price of almost $3,000, an additional $800 wouldn't probably hurt a lot for an M9.
(Maybe, just, maybe, if this doesn't sell a lot for Nikon, wait a year, and it will be on a fire sale at (hopefully) $2,000, then it will be a GREAT camera!)
