The SFXn is a bloody great SLR.
I have one in mint condition fitted with the Pentax SMC F 35-135 and the
AA battery grip. It gets used for B&W shots or roaming candids at
weddings etc etc.
It's fitted with the Pentax Gripstrap F.
This makes it handle almost as well at the PZ-1p with the grip strap FD.
It is a bit loud. Once the shutter is fired, the people near to it know
that the bloody camera bloke is around :-)

I have one of them too (on loan to a friend) and I find it handles much better than the Z-1p in my small hands (I have no grip for either of the two). I have enjoyed every single picture I have taken with this sturdy camera (fantastic VF). But its menu interface needs some getting used to. It is loud, but I think it's better damped than the Z-1p and that counts for me.
