I agree with one exception. I prefer the XR-1, same features w/o the AE option so it will function with dead batteries. Next best thing to a KX. Another good K-body in the Chinon CP-5s/CP-6 which has lacks the DOF preview but has a spotmeter and two program modes. They will also use ANY k-mount lens in program or aperture priority modes, just set it to the minimum size aperture. JeffW. - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.
