I know what you mean (!) but I don't think a better deal can be done today. I looked at prices of film cameras and lenses to see if I could get one or two reasonably priced lenses for my 67, under the impression that so many people migrating to digital would cause a price slump. The prices are as good as they were a few years back. I then looked at LX prices and found the same result; prices are as good as they were when I bought mine; if anything I got a better deal on them. Whatever the impact of digital, film cameras seem to have retained their value, judging from adverts and the eBay auctions I've often followed with more than a passing interest. Malcolm
