 I could have done; I had a friend who used to have one, until he sold all his 
film gear to go digital.

 What I like about the Pentax is that being an SLR lens you can actually see 
and avoid flare before you shoot.  Thats a big advantage in my book.  You 
might also find the extra speed useful.

 On the other hand, the rangefinder is small and light.  It may be better 
optically because it won't be a retrofocus design.
