Todd, I bought my first Pentax camera, a ZX5n, because it was the only
auto-focus camera that had a spot meter built-in and a convential layout of
the controls. Then I bought a used K1000 on eBay as a backup body. I have
found that all the used lenses that I have bought on eBay work well and are
reasonably priced. They work well, but don't have the price pressure of
brands such as Nikon and Canon where too few goods are being bid on by too
many buyers. George
