There's something very nice about knowing your gadget's quirks and being able to work around them. I still love my old NEX camera, despite all the ways I've come to hate it: the terrible menu system, the horribly placed buttons, the bland JPGs. I can deal with them.

And yet, the camera still finds wonderful new ways to surprise me. Like this weekend, when, after 20 minutes of use in near-freezing weather, a pop-up told me that the OLED viewfinder had overheated and was being disabled. Someone tell me how this is possible.
