what we are talking about here i am guessing is the fact that it is a digital slr. any digital slr (including the canon 30d) is going to basically have the same controlls i guess so maybe you are after the simplicity of a point n' shoot camera?

tell us what you want the camera for and we can tell you if your camera or indeed any other DSLR will be of use to you.
David I suspect skairey was using "Sensitive" as a figure of speech, as in "Some people as too Sensitive".
There is a big difference in built quality out there between brands, even different models from the same manufacturer are built to their respective price points. This impacts it's performance in different types of weather.
Some lighter models sometimes are not as sturdy in windy conditions.
Also there are models that make it very confusing with the way the buttons are layed out.

Also, skairey stated that the camera is intended for astro work.
