Godfrey, I've been enjoying reading about your new SL to which I give some credit for your speedy hip replacement recovery. Am curious what your opinion is of the EVF. Are you able to adjust the image and how satisfactory do you find it? Thanks!

But it's an entirely different kind of camera compared to the 645Z and not directly comparable. In the Leica product range, the comparable piece of equipment to the Pentax 645Z is the Leica S system … which is quite a bit more expensive, particularly the lenses. It all depends what you're after. I have looked at the Pentax 645Z as I had a 645 in the past and liked it, but it wasn't what I was after. The SL is exactly what I've been hoping to see, and proves to be just the ticket for me. I bought both SL and 24-90 lens (a $5000 "kit" lens? LOL!). I'll likely only use the zoom occasionally, though; my original plan was to buy just the body since I have a full complement of Leica R lenses to use with the camera, could have saved that money. But it's nice to have one dedicated lens that allows me to use all the features of the body including all exposure modes, AF, and image stabilization. onwards, G > On Nov 21, 2015, at 2:08 PM, John <sesso...@earthlink.net> wrote: > > It appears to be a very nice camera, but for the cost of that body & kit > lens I could almost afford the Pentax "645Z Medium Format DSLR Camera > Comprehensive Starter Kit" from B&H. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
