The MZ-5n is at least two generations newer, and one of the all-time favourite Pentaxes. The SF-1n was top-of-the-line in its day, but those days are long gone... For more realistic pricing, check the completed auctions at ebay. Do this for a while, as prices can vary from month to month. Currenty, I find $20 and $60 for the SF-1n (both body only), $80 though $250 for MZ-5n's (all with lens). This seems normal, with some very high prices for MZ-5n's... -- Regards, Lucas -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
