The digital cameras today take forever to go into the menus and adjust these things if you want to change the pic from what it wants you to get.
But they do an excellent job for the most part. So what more do you need in a camera while cycling that your smartphone doesn't give you?
I do have a MX and some SMC lenses, including the 50 1.4 and the 'pancake' 40 2.8, but I haven't used them for some 15 years. That's exactly what I'd want (including having a viewfinder), only digital and smaller. Call me a retrogrouch, but I don't own a smartphone!
