I would be interested to know if it works ??

I am presuming the MZ-5N will be ok. What will be the limitations (if any) aside from aperture control. Sorry for the hijack, Hardgravity

I don't have any M series lenses and want to be able to use some of my DA lenses on the film body, not sure how practical this will be but I also have a few AF lenses.

He's heard about your database as well

Thanks Kris. believe it or not, just 5mins before I was wondering if womble had one in his database Spooky

Thanks John I might look around a bit more. But I can't find one listed on E-bay world wide

But there are a couple of Z-1p which might fit the bill.

I found 2 others in classified mags, One with a pentax kit lens and the other just a body and they were asking £270 and £210 respectively. Silly money if you ask me, I can buy an MZ-S for less than that.

I want it for my son who is keen to take up the hobby, and he wants to start at the bottom, so to speak with film. He doesn't like the looks of my ME, program A or spotties, and wants something modern

I have been offered an MZ-5N body for AU$150 (60quid) Its boxed and is in mint condition. Do you think its a good buy ??

Nothing on Ebay to give me a guide. Thanks

As requested, here are a couple of shots taken with the Steinheil Munchen.

Bright sunny day, K20 at F8/F11, iso/100.

Doesn't look too bad, CA and flare seem well controled.

It was Don who made the laundry hamper light tent. I made one and it works a treat.

I remember Matt Posting some good links on the subject.

Are you sure about the asking price of the FA 50mm 1.4 :

What do they go for new over there. :

I got mine brand new for around 120quid and used examples regularly come up for around 100quid.

The 43mm looks great but I won't be tempted


Pete beat me too it
