Not really -- the Honeywell/Pentax/Asahi logo is on the prism, which is removable. You could have a new body with an old prism. The way to check for MLU is to look for the MLU switch. It is on the same side as the shutter release, on the side of the mirror box. On an non-MLU camera there will be no switch. > Also, sometimes I see the lenses marked as "late," this means what > exactly? That they're a newer version of a lens that's been updated at some point. -Aaron - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.
