Nope, you saw one with a metering prism on it. You have to turn it on, I think. Dunno, I don't have one. Another giveaway is that it sticks out on the left, over the shutter speed dial. The non-metering prism does not, and makes the camera appear more symmetrical. > I'd really like a 67ii for the integral spot meter, but its not gonna > happen.

You can always upgrade your body when you have a pile of 67 glass. > Well, I just sold my ring for $700 US. So, that plus a little on top.. > and > I'm in! I get my cash in two weeks.. whee! Woohoo! Did an engagement fall through or something? If so, hopefully the camera will not end up being a reminder of that. Unless it's a good kind of reminder. -Aaron - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List. To unsubscribe, go to http://www.pdml.net and follow the directions.
