I have a DX3, old by comparison, but trusted, known and loved…..maybe newer is not 100% of the time better ( nothing against current offerings, but no spec sheet completes the experience and relationship between kit and user)…. An opinion humbly offered.
The Df does have Wifi as optional attachment. Please correct. Thanks.
If you read the list of features properly is clearly says “built-in WIIFI”. The fact that you can buy WIFI as an additional unit is besides the point and no correction is needed.
