This is interesting I was planning on getting a set on rechargable CR-V3's so I know need to think about what replace my non rechargeable CR-V3's with!

Hi thanks for the advice it came with a 2gb cf card and came with some crv3 batterys. I may try the 50mm lens from my brothers mx on it i tried the 38-70 from the miranda on it wich worked.
I have two questions:
1. Can I use my miranda 700 CD multi dedicated fash gunhttp://www.mirandacamera.com/_service/_inst_books/_700CD_flash/700CD_flash.htm on it.
2. Can I change the foucusing screen on it to a split style such as on my miranda and it think on the mx.

Thanks
David

The Samsung GX-1L or Pentax *ist DL would be the worst choice of the Samsung/Pentax models. You'd have the inferior type of viewfinder AND no Shake Reduction

and also no multi-point focusing, iirr.
I have just bought a *istD for £160 ( i am a cheap skate) i hope it's not that bad!
