Heck, I almost bought a 67II to replace my 67 because it's a giant ME Super, control-wise. An MZ-5 with a thumbwheel for the shutter speed would be perfection. -Aaron -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subj: New favourite body Date: Wed Jul 12, 2006 6:26 pm Size: 1K T

Hello to All, Favourite Body is definitely the mighty MZ-S with the battery holder/grip. One of the best modern cameras ever made IMHO. Favourite Lens would have to be the 77mm 1.8 limited with my FA 20mm f2.8 and FA 35mm f2 a close second and third place. Favorite Zoom / Non-Pentax lens: Tokina

Hi! Ok, I'd answer that. It would be ME Super. It has some automation that does help, yet automation is not intrusive. It is simply an excellent tool for an amateur like myself. I dig out ZX-L now only if I know I am going to be using my FA 50/1.7 exclusively with autofocus. --- Boris Liberman
