Choosing SLR camera

I'm using M42 screw lensen (manuals, Carl Zeiss) and I have Zenit 212K camera. But because this camera is with Pentax K bayonet, I have adapters for these lenses. That why I need Pentax as second body. I also want use this body as autofocus. I checked Pentax MZ-S, but there is complaining about noisy autofocus, slow shutter speed (for X-sync). Could you recommend me some body from Pentax, with metal bayonet a railing for the film too. Thank you

I don't understand what you meant by "metal bayonet a railing for the film too", but the Z1-P has the fastest flash sync of any Pentax camera, and is also the most sophisticated camera.

The mount and film guides are metal (if that's what you meant).

The MZ-S is slightly more rugged and has better auto-focus and more flash options (when used with a high-end flashgun).

However, fast flash sync is one of those things that some people make a great noise about (like the appalling Ken Rockwell), but that most people don't need, in my view. Note the word "most"!

The MZ-S is quite expensive second-hand; the Z1-P is somewhat less expensive, but still not cheap.
