Hallo all! At last I made it for the second body. I wanted to have the following features.
1) Mechanical shutter 2) DOF preview. 3) Mulitple exposure capability. 3) Manual film advance and rewind. 4) Flash synchronizaton socket besides hot shoe. 5) Centerweighted average metering. 6) Viewfinder eyepiece magnification 0.84X atleast. 6) Pentaprism viewfinder. Sorry! I didn't went for PENTAX this time. Instead, I got a new RICOH XR-8 SUPER. It is a workhorse and it has all the features that I desired. The weight is good, 485 gms., however, its height is not large enough to completely cover the width of my palm. That is a drawback but I have to live with it. (I have attached a battery pack in my MZ-M and improves the grip a lot.) Do, any of you, besides Yoshihiki, have used this body before? Yoshihiko, are you out there? Please don't hesitate to send positive/negetive comments. I know that most of you won't be angry on me as I didn't went for PENTAX. With kind regards, Ayash. - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List. To unsubscribe, go to http://www.pdml.net and follow the directions.
