I have so many questions about the Spots, but so little time. Why are they so liked by everyone? Did someone say that Mamiya & Nikon lenses will work with this camera? Is that why they are so popular-even more lenses to find on the used market?
It appears that they are well built also, as some of you have had them for a number of years.
