Hi, Bernd, Funny, but for all the talk about an MX with 2.8 40mm "pancake" being pocketable (which I guess it is - in a big pocket), it's just not ~quite~ small enough for me. And, I want something cheap and dirty to throw in a bag or pocket for those times when I don't want to hang a camera around my neck; hence my choice of a little Minolta HiMatic F rangefinder. But your observation of the lack of Pentax product mentioned in this thread is well taken. I for one would have expected to see the Pentax 110 mentioned more than once - which it wasn't.
Funny you should mention that your daily commute is boring and that there's nothing of interest to photograph. I find that having a camera with me makes me look at the world in a different way. I'm sure there are plenty of things for you to take pictures of each day. Of course, you'd run the risk of being "that strange man who stands at the end of the train station platform with the camera", to all the other commuters! <vbg> I bet taking a camera with you would make your commute a bit more interesting. Sounds like you need it! regards, frank Familie Scheffler wrote: > I just scrolled through several answers of this thread in my digest-mails.
