Check the viewfinder specs before buying a ZX-M! It's kinda dark, BUT, it's really small! I can't see a thing through it. Compared to a Super A it looks like you put a 50/1.4 on the SA and 28/4 on the M. Even though you had a 50/2 on both!
If you do want one I'll sell mine cheap! I really can't focus the dang thing.
