Which is *much* worse than the A 50mm F1.2, which is second only to the
40mm Pancake.

Buy a MX instead. Better yet buy two MX's.

My informal tabulations show the MV as the number one camera, with three
more owned by listmembers than the #2 camera, the MX. The LX numbers are
way off, as sticky mirror cameras shouldn't count (that leaves just 4 LX's
in the roll call). BTW, the reason why the MV, the number one camera, is
so low in the roll call is because everybody confuses it with the ME Super.

Agreed, it's not as good as the new Kodak "Backlit Relatives", Kodak
"Redeye", or Kodak "Colorshift Plus" films.

All except the IQ Zoom 200 really stink. Buy a Vivitar focus free camera
instead. I recommend the IQ Zoom 200 though, it allows you to get blurry,
out of focus pictures without having to buy a Rollei 35.

If you are really bored try a few messages on the MZ-S, and tell us how
it's much inferior to the PZ-1p, LX, K1000, MX, Sears SLRs, Nikon F5, Canon
Rebel, Vivitar focus free cameras, Kodak disposables, and the number one
Pentax, the MV. *puts on fire-proof suit* There, that should do it :)
