ME-Super 1980. Friend had a Nikon FM2 with the legendary 50 1.4 that he let me borrow for a weekend, but I could not afford the combo. The ME-Super with a 50 1.4 was lighter, filled with more features, and less expensive.

The "favorite" pentax poll generated lots of good stuff. Got me to thinking about my first pentax.

Mine was a P 30t, but came as a gift, so I don't know if it counts. The first one of my own choosing was a spotmatic, a real "user" off ebay, and it came with a 20 pound sack full of lenses-- the 28(3.5), 50(1.4), 105(2.8), 135(3.5) and 200(4)super taks. The fifty was a "user" too, but the others were near mint, with cases. Since then, I've been a fan (as described by Bob Blakely) of pentax equipment. I've owned nearly every body, and as many lenses as a poor amateur can afford.
