Yup, he could adjust the "speed", but on the fly?
It would probably take him a good few minutes to change everything meticulously. Even a lowly K50 would definitely be more convenient and faster to change ISO.

To OP: don't take it too personal.
No camera is without fault. It's a matter of preference, price tag and adjusting to what you have. Either live with it, or ditch it.
Enjoy! We'll hope to see you more around!
