Hi, I don't know about the A3000, but I picked up a MEII winder over the weekend (birthday present for myself:)) for my Super Programs and ME and compared to my ZX-5n it really sounds like it means business. Kinda like the difference between and electric scooter and a Harley.

I hadn't used it much since I got my MZ-5N and I was struck by how much cooler it sounds than the newer camera. There's a definite KA-chunk with the A3000 followed by the winder. The winder sounds like it's working a bit to advance the film. On the MZ 5N, it's much more sterile. The mirror/shudder noise is relatively non-existent and the winder sounds less interesting. Sounds a lot more like my Kodak advantix P&S than the sound in my head that represents expensive(good?) cameras. (Think early 80's pop song by the J. Giles Band "Freeze Frame") I don't have a lot of experience with SLR cameras. The two I have are the only ones I've messed with for any length of time. I guess I'll have to buy a bunch of cameras to evaluate the noises they make so I can report to the list...:) Cory Waters Thinking my wife won't buy that particular reasoning and will counter any enableing that might flow from other list members. :( Make a great connection at Yahoo!
