This little guy's been around for a year or two. From the few reviews I've read about it, it seems to be mechanically very similar (if not identical) to the K-mount bodies offered by Phoenix, Vivitar, Promaster, etc. However, the last time I picked up a Promaster K-body, IIRC it was made in China or Thailand. The VSL43 is made in Japan, so I may be completely wrong about the similarities. The reviews do suggest that it has a very nice viewfinder. -- Scott Loveless http://www.twosixteen.com -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
