Tough question, Lon. I'm torn between the MX and the Spotmatic F. The MX
has a better meter, and it is more compact. But the Spotmatic F is a
sturdy workhorse, and you can build a full kit of extremely fine lenses
for considerably less than the cost of comparable K-mount lenses.
Consider the value of a Spotmatic F with the superb SMC Taks 24/3.5,
28/3.5, 35/2.0, 50/1.4, 85/1.8, 105/2.8, 135/2.5, 200/4, and 300/4.
That's probably the best value in 35mm photography.
