I assume you are happy with the lenes you already have, as well as shooting
film.
You may consider supplementing your selection of lenses with a wideangle.
Perhaps a 24mm or a 20mm, preferably an FA verison.
My SMC-A 2.8/20mm is one of the lenses I have used the most, even before I
went digital.

Or perhaps an AF500FTZ flash, if you don't have a TTL-flash already.

Otherwise sell it all, except the SMC-F 1.7/50mm, and get an *ist D/DS with
a 16-45mm.
Consider which telephoto lens may want to keep too.
All the best

Ok, I've got a bit of a dillema here, what would you do?
Between Christmas gifts and personal savings, I've got about $1K cdn
itching to get back into circulation.

What do I do with it?
Currently I have:
PZ-1, MZ-10 bodies.
28-70/4 FA
70-210/4.5-5.6 F-SMC
50/1.7F
28-200 FA
105/2.8 Kiron Macro
400/5.6 Sigma APO
1.7x AF Teleconvertor
Manfrotto Tripod.

I burned about 30-40 rolls of slide film last year,  mostly through
holidays, but I love to get out into the forest or near the waterfront
for a couple of hours. Everything from Landscapes, wildlife, macro,
family snapshots.

My ideas :
1) Hold onto it & save towards an *istD. Because I love the PZ-1 so
much over the MZ-10, I think I'd prefer the D. That'll be tough, just
to wait....

2) Pick up another PZ-1 body. Used both bodies alot over the holidays
last year  and I'm not crazy about going back to the constantly
switching lenses.

3) Look around for some faster glass. Perhaps I could get a third
party 28-70/2.8 and a 70-210/2.8.

4) Get a better ballhead for my tripod.

5) Forget gear, buy more film.

6) Any other ideas?

thanx
