Sorry, I read your response as a defense of the MX in general, and I agree that it's a nicely-spec'ed camera that doesn't need defending in that way; my point was only about its durability. The KM and the KX both have DOF preview, and each of them had a version that took a motor drive (KM MOT and K2DMD). However, with the motor drive they're large, expensive and hard to find... though the Motor Drive MX is *extremely* rare. I'm not sure if the KM and KX have interchangeable focusing screens or not. chris - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.
