Hi all,

I've been having a lot of fun with the SF7, but the lack of exposure compensation is getting to me a bit. I'm interested in an MZ5n/MZ3/MZ-6/MZ-7 if anyone is looking to get rid of one (i.e. one of the MZ bodies with depth of field preview and exposure lock). Ebay prices seem to be in the 30 - 50 quid range for all of these, so I'm not looking to spend much above that. I'd consider a PZ-1P too

Anyone got one of these that's gathering dust and they'd like to see go to an appreciative home?

I have an SFXn knocking around if you're interested.

I believe it has exposure compensation and exposure lock (but no depth of field preview). Also has battery with some charge in there but I haven't run a roll of film through it.
You will only prise my 43Ltd from my cold, dead hands...

Replied to PM.

Thanks Wobbly, but I think I'll hold out for one of the more recent bodies. The reply to my post was much appreciated though.

I don't know where you live, but in case this is of any interest, Oxfam Headington, Oxford had an MZ-7 this morning- looked in good condition.

Yeah, you'd miss it alright

Besides, it's so nice having a film body when you want really small depth of field!

Thank to all the people who got in touch. It looks like I've been able to source a couple of bodies. I'll check they work over the next week or so and hopefully post some nice pics!
