Subject: Pentax ZX-5n or Nikon N65
> About 30 years ago, I enjoyed using a Pentax Spotmatic with two prime
> lenses, but later sold everything several years ago.

> On paper, although the N65 is newer, both cameras seem to have similar
> specs. Pros and cons: the ZX-5n has a spot meter and the auto-exposure
> system can work with manual lenses, whereas the N65 exposure (which requires
> auto-focus lense) seems better (in that it considers distance info when
> using Nikon D and G AF lenses). Also the N65 flash is brighter (GN 39 vs
> 11), and the N65 body fits my hand somewhat better.
>
> As for lenses, I'm considering at least one prime (e.g., 50mm, near 1.8) and
> a non-power AF zoom, e.g., 28-105mm (or the upcoming 24-90mm Pentax zoom).
>
> All comments will be appreciated. I'm particularly interested in issues
> that go beyond the specs (like reliability, ease of use, etc.).
