Hello,

I am in a process :-)  of choosing new SLR camera. So far my choice is Pentax MZ-5n. I 
guess you discuss similar topics quite a lot, but I am member of the list quite short 
and the search of archive didn't gave me the answers.

I like to know how the AE (memory) lock works on MZ-5n. So far I know that it holds 
measured values for 10 sec. It seems to me quite short. I am used to have AE lock 
working the way it holds value until shutter release or next push. Is there any way to 
hold the measured value longer? For example by holding AE button pushed?

Assume following situation, I used AF and focus on the place I like than I like to 
measure the light on the other parts of composition so I move central point and 
measure the light by spot measurement. If I like to see values I have to push shutter 
release half way (right?). But than AF will refocus, right? Is there any way to 
activate AF and measurement independently?

Or generally what is your way to compose picture, measure light by spot measurement, 
set bracketing and focusing with MZ-5n?

Thanks for any advice and opinions.
