as per title really...preferably the 6 because of the higher shutter speed, but will also consider a 7

Really just looking for a good FF body to use with my 70mm 2.4 limited

many thanks

Have you not considered the MZ-S ? Or does the price scare you?

the price is scary....an MZ-s costs x10 more judging by the examples on ebay at the moment!

The Z-1 and Z-1Pare both worth a look too. They are a little bit larger, but have the twin control dials to let you use lenses without aperture rings. I quite like the ergonomics of mine, even with the size in mind.

But they are two levels above the MZ-7 !

And I could sell you one with a Battery grip too!

nice try don't know much about the MZ-s, apart from it being a beautiful camera and, unfortunately, it's reliance on an aperture ring to shoot in Av mode...something I don't have with the 70mm Limited

thanks to Brian, it looks like I might be about to order a Z1p
