Actually; most people who have actually tried this camera (including ex-Minoltians) have liked the new design, and have found very quick and easy to use.
Everything either has a dedicated button - or else - is on the main display. You just toggle the joystick to move from a setting which has a dedicated button to any of those that do not.
My main reservation about the design is indeed the lack of controls or whatnot on the top right panel. They could have used that panel to greater use.
