I think that there is one for sale in the Clasifieds.

My First camera, a Spotmatic 500 was bought on the day I was born in 1973, my Dad claims it was new off the shelf so you could try that.

Someone posted a WTB for one of these last week, might be worth a PM?

This thread on the other forum has some testimages with different lenses.

I hope that it is fantastic and what everyone wants.

Then perhaps one of you K5 owners out there will upgrade and sell me your K5 for a song.

Hello all

After trying to build up my prime lense collection for my manual film cameras I am toying with the idea of a short end zoom to compliment.

I am looking for a zoom in something like the 28 - 80 range but the main thing is it must have a constant apperture. I want the lens mainly as a walk about street photography lense which will sometimes be going on my MX which does not have apperture priority so don't want to be constantly worrying about the focal length etc when I see something.

Being 2.8 would be a bonus too

Any recommendations, does the lense exist, don't really have a budget in mind but am prepared to save up if I really want something.

Thanks

Paul
