Oops - I misread your post. Sorry, Gaurav. However, my basic premise may still be valid. I think that you might be better off getting an ME Super (a really nice body, and quite inexpensive nowadays) and another 50mm normal lens (perhaps an M lens), as opposed to fishing around for a body that will "enable" your defective A 50/1.7 to limp along in shutter-priority mode or in program mode. (I must admit that my opinion on this may be affected by the fact that I do 75% of my shooting using aperture-priority mode, while the other 25% is done in manual exposure mode, both of which require using aperture rings - <g>.)
