the *ist D is way too late, and it better be cheap because it's last years' technology
"last years' technology"? Why are you saying that?
What's "last year" in it? We haven't seen the complete specification yet, but from what is known - it seems to be very updated. Because...
* It uses a tweaked, updated, version of the Sony CCD chip (so this is "this years'" technology)
* It has the most advanced and modern autofocus system in it's class.
* It probably has some tricks - unknown for everyone except the clever people at the r&d department. (I suspect that it will have USM and IS support)
* And, it's not late. It's perfect timing. Prices was to high last year. No one would have bought it.
and the *ist has some nice features but is extremely tacky looking.
I don't agree with you here. It has the best specification in it's class, it even gives F80 and EOS 30/33 a run for the money. And about the design, I like it a lot. It has style, it has class. I like it.
Limited Lenses, while beautiful, have no camera to match them either in performance or cosmetics.
The MZ-S match them, trouble is that the silver-black version is only available in Japan.
Best wishes, Roland
