Personally, I kind of like a truly solid feeling on camera bodies, which those OMs don't have. The reason I've used screw-mount Pentaxes for years and - having decided that the K mount had some things to offer - I'm now on the look-out for a KX to go with the KM and the K2 is that they give me that solid feeling. Indeed, ergonomics *are* the reason I use Pentaxes rather than another of the good SLRs. Plus they're big enough - am OM-1 or an MX is too small for my hands. Do any of the later Pentax models use the same body frame as the Spotmatics through K-series? I'm finding that getting maintenance on K-series bodies is harder than on Spotmatics, there having been such huge numbers of the latter sold in the UK. --- John Dallman [EMAIL PROTECTED]
