Anyone have any comments on these beasts? I noticed a seller is running an
auction for a bunch of new ones pretty cheap. They would seem to be fun to
own just off of the reactions you'd probably get from people while using it
(what the heck is that thing?!?). And of course you could use all your
fine Pentax glass with it, though a Limited lens hanging off the front
would look...uh...rather goofy...
Here's the auction:

Something interesting is the field of view for the finder is 98%, according
to the seller. If that's true then it's right up there with the K2 and LX!

New style or old. I had a Moscow Olympics commerative edition of a Zenit
with an Industar lens. kinda klunky but everything worked and it does take
M42 lenses if that is your objective. BTW the Industar was a pretty decent
lens itself. The new ones are a bit more modern and I don't know anything
about them except they are still fully manual. For not alot of money and if
you need a M42 body it could be fun.
