Hi
Why not add speed priority as well as a program mode? Even matrix metering!
Sorry, but I like the Super A so much - combine the two (and a little
extra); and there's my camera. (Ad some features from the PZ1-p; there's the
MZ-S)
Best Regards
Jens

        Seems to me as if the spotmeter capability could be built into
        a new LX finder assembly as done w/ the P67's. A deluxe magnifying
        finder w/ an optimal screen type and perhaps several selectable
        metering areas. Perhaps some sort of fiber-optics bundle to a
        single metering cell somewhere.

        Of course, being up in the finder instead of down in the body,
        a "cell on a stick" *could* be manually moved around to any part
        of the screen. It could be a very small one, causing minimal
        obstruction of the viewfinder image and it wouldn't block the
        actual image-making lightpath as the original Spotmatic design did.


        ... just a thought
                                     Bill

        oh - and make the auto-wind optional/keep manual wind-on ability!
