I think yes - depending on what was in the background to the right of the
flower barrel, had you moved to the left you could have omitted the vehicle
parked on the left by the fence, and the 3 buildings in the background.

A few years back (way before in the internet), I picked up what for me was
an ususual Pentax Spotmatic. It had a mirror lockup switch on the camera's
right side. I got it from KEH. Whoever owned it wanted a way to lock up
thee mirror and had Pentax install a switch to allow it.

The MX doesn't have it.
The DMD versions of the KX and K2 should have MLU too, but I
don't know of other bodies.

true MLU.

the first time you use it, you may start to dislike the camera and seldom use
it afterward. Eventually you may stop enjoying photography altogether —

Exactly, graywolf. Manually setting the EI or ISO on the flash
(overriding the data transmitted from the camera) works in TTL as well as in
Auto. If there's no way to change the setting on the flash, then it
becomes complicated.

Actually, Contax has only a 24-85 so *they're* trailing. Not that that means
