I can relate to that, although I've also just got a secondhand Pentax 645 which I really enjoy using, so I'm torn in three directions when I want to go taking photographs. Decisions, decisions. Sometimes it seems easier to stay at home ;-) Nick -Original Message- From: "wendy beard

Congratulations on your choice of the Pentax MZ-S! It's a very enjoyable camera to use, with a high-quality feel to it. If you get the BG-10 grip, it's even better. The infra-red remote is handier than you might think, enabling self-portraits from as far away as 15-20 feet, and a good substi
