Call me heretic, but you might want to look at the manual Ricoh
bodies. The XR-2 is particularly impressive, and typically sells for a
nominal amount.
AFAIK, all of the manual Rioch have mirror pre-fire via the self
timer. One your set the time the mirror filps, the lens stops down, the
body counts off and then fires. It's similar to the 2 second mirror
pre-fire in the Pz-1p and Mz-S. If you are on a budget, it's a serious
option to consider.
