I thought that #2 was true of normal K2's also, but when I looked at my
own black K2, I found that there is no window for the apertrue in the
viewfinder.
HOWEVER, I do notice a silver metal 'notch' where the window should be
(this is a black K2 so the notch is obvious) . . . has anyone ever taken
apart a K2 to add in a window? I'm not sure, but I'd THINK that all
aperature windows would be the same (easier to manufacture that way) . .
. would an MX window fit?
The reason I ask, is because my old MX did this, but it's now pretty
much dead, and might be worth scavanging the parts from, if I could add
the window to the K2 without violating the camera TOO much :-D
