Ok, that's it, I am moving to a Mamiya M645 next year, no more pixel counts!
If I need a K1000 I will borrow my brother's camera.

Just kidding, sort of. I am in fact thinking of getting a 645 now that they
are affordable.

Hell, I get more-consistent "happy snaps" with flash using the K7's built-in

Sometimes I think I should just cash in all of the old lenses and switch
over.  Then I look at my motley assortment collected over the past 30+ years
and I cannot do it.
