Maybe (if you're patient enough). I have a MX and a MZ-S, and consider the latter to be an "AF MX". Sure the viewfinder isn't that big, but it's mighty contrasty, and a joy to look through. It's very well built, easy to operate, compact, has about everything a MX user would want and more, is fully compatibile (I have 6 lenses now - K 50/1.4, FA 50/1.4, Revuenon 55/1.2, FA 28/2.8, M 100/2.8 and A 24-50/4 [though I'm planning to sell the last one] and with all of them I can use centerweighed and spot metering, I don't mind not being able to use matrix metering with the M and K lenses). I'm sure you wouldn't like neither the MZ-3 nor MZ-5n, because of their viewfinders and plastic construction, and I'm scared by the multitude of LX glitches (spelling?). I guess a PZ-1/p could be a cheaper alternative to the MZ-S, if you don't mind more plastic and a bigger body. Juzt my 2 cents. regards, Lukasz
