Hi David.

The lenses you have would work with *istD, therefore, the lenses
should stay. I think that quality of your MF camera would not be
surpassed by *istD, so perhaps this should stay either. Then of course
you could sell MZ-S and add funds for *istD and then optionally, if
you feel more than satisfied with this, sell your Mamiya and lens, to
get the added funds back.

However, if I were you, I would not do any of the above. You have
flagship film camera. You have excellent glass. As I've learned in my
English lessons - "If it ain't broken, don't fix it". To mix in freely
translated Russian saying - "Better is the main enemy of Good"...

My humble advise is to not bother.

Boris
