Hi Frank How do you decide if you use your Leica, the Pentax LX or the Pentax Spotmatic? That's the ones I saw mentioned with your PESO, I'm quite sure you got even more cameras? I found out, that being in sentimental mood I use the older cameras like the ME Super and now the Spotmatic F a lot more. The some weeks ago purchased Spotmatic F also got a lot of use lately because of the 85mm SMC Takumar 1.8 and I just love the built quality and handling. greetings Markus
