In terms of utility, AF lenses enable autofocus,
and MF lenses do not. For carefully-composed
images, you may not miss the AF. If you're out

In terms of magnification, here's a quick table:

Does it have to be a Pentax lens? The Vivitar Series 1 105mm f2.5 focuses

Actually, I think I read about it a while ago here, on PDML. Never
tested it though. So I took out MZ-3 today, put it on a tripod and took a

I just picked up a Schneider Componon-S 135 for 102.50. The seller had

I purchased my 6x7 for 202.11. And it's in great shape. I found a 300/4 for a

photography. All for about the price of a Nikon N80 and a long lens.

It was right there with other odds and ends. I didn't realize the LX/MX

a bit of good news here - well, good news, bad news.
good news I sold a bw photo of mine on ebay (as well as the chalk
