645 or 67 LS on an adapter maybe? Those adapters have to be good for

You can add 300mm f/4 as I have one. It is manual but is very sharp.

I'd ask for a 'neo-M series' of prime lenses. The Limiteds are nice but
expensive; the likes of the FA*24/2 are bulky and expensive, and not
everyone needs such wide apertures. Some of these already exist, but
how about a series that went something like:
20mm f/4
24mm f/2.8
28mm f/2.8
35mm f/2.8
If you want to see one of the Steadicam systems used for filming in the big
budget hollywood films rent the video of "Aliens" (the second of the Sigourney
Weaver Alien flicks). The machine gun platform that the marines use is a
Steadicam unit with a prop gun attached to it instead of a camera. May

Replace that FA* 28-70/2.8 with an FA* (II?) 24-90/2.8.
A 24-90/2.8 would have been a perfect companion to the coming 18/2

I'd like to add "ruggedised build" to the list, including better sealing and less

You could always look into getting one of the professional
steadicam systems used for motion picture filming.
I'm sure they're quite inexpensive ;-P

The spot metering in the PZ-1p seems pretty good.

There is a guy out there with a gyro rig, $2K+ I think.
I stumbled upon the web site some time ago. It discusses his efforts to take high

vibrate!

I want an all metal, mechanical, MF limited camera to match the limited
lenses. Imagine something like the KX with a limited finish. We'd all be
drooling all over it, and if it sells like the limited lenses it will be a

- FA 645 55/2.8 (f/2 would be nice, but I won't hold my breath)
- FA 100/2 (defocus control would be neat)
- 66R (an 6x6 rangefinder with ttl flash metering, ability to use a
short tele to get a decent head shot and leaf shutters.)
I agree about the 645 zoom focal lengths being a bit odd.
