Hi Ken.I recently aquired a Super Program in February and, although i like the camera,made the same discoveries. It is a lot noisier than my K1000 or Spotties and i did the same tests,all exposed very well.I shot some TTl flash using Auto Ap. priority and bouncy(see Cotty)and all exposed fine. I bought it as a back up to the K1000's but really like the TTL flash.I think you will too. BTW i used the AF280T.

There was so much mirror slap and shutter noise that I replaced the mirror pad which was about gone and the light seals. That didn't help. Compared to my ME Supers and Spotmatics, the Super Program is a real "klunker", at least that is what it sounds like. You lose stealth mode after the first shot. I shot a test roll using shutter priority, aperature priority and full program mode and the negs came out identical and right on the money. I have a AF200T coming and want to try out the ttl flash. That might be the only thing that would make me prefer the Super Program over the ME Super. -- Kenneth Archer, San Antonio, Texas [EMAIL PROTECTED] - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.
