G'day Larry Thanks for the reply. As for the Overlapping Glass. I have these lenses. But some are bound for Ebay. As well as a MZ-50, Z-10 and a MZ-7 I am going to shoot a roll with each lens and try & find the best ones for the Z-1 and flog the rest off.
Hooroo. Regards. Trevor Australia Trevor, You'll love it. I've used a Z-1 since they first hit Asia (was working in Singapore & Malaysia) as the next step from my Super-A. Everything very quickly became intuitive (and it's an ideal predecessor to the istD - my latest fascination) and it feels good in my hands. It's bigger than the istD and handles better with the (NON-Battery) grip which also makes it less likely to drop. It works fast and is bright and easy to frame. I guess that I'm one of the few that use the power zoom (except when the sound would be intrusive). Since a lot of my shots are food related, and paella doesn't easily startle, I use it. However, your lenses won't use that feature and it is a battery eater. It also works well with 42m lenses (a legacy from my '68 Spotmatic - which still works quite well) using the Pentax adapter.
