Gaurav, I think you're "putting the cart before the horse", perhaps. While there certainly are other Ka mf bodies less expensive than the Super Program/A that you could look for (e.g., Program Plus/A, A3/A3000, P3/P30, P5/P50, P3n/P30n), I think that you might be better off finding another 50mm lens for your ME Super, which you did say you like (and I can understand why). I can imagine circumstances where one might look for a body to fit a favored lens, but looking for a body just to enable the use of a defective 50mm lens just doesn't seem to make much sense to me.
