Thanks Joel & Hefty1 ! So now I just need to find one that is in good condition and reasonably priced... I think ebay and KEH are probably my best bets as well as the local 2nd hand stores here in Hong Kong.

Hi all,

I've currently got a P67 version 1 body (with MLU) together with a 45mm, 55mm and 105mm lenses. I'm pretty happy with the camera and would like to stick with the system for the time being for landscape/travel photography. The system sits alongside my Nikon 35mm equipment which I use for more walkabout/street shooting.

My question is whether it is worth upgrading to a newer v2 body of the P67? A couple of the drawbacks I find with the P67i are:

1) Metering with the 'light needle' is not always accurate (hence I usually carry a spotmeter around with me)
2) Sometimes the shutter will 'lock up' even when the battery has not died (may just be an issue with my particular P67i body)
3) No 'in viewfinder' exposure information so have to always recheck the lens to see what I'm shooting
4) No Aperture Priority mode for metering (the mode my Nikon camera is always left in)

I see the prices for P67ii bodies are considerably more than the P67i ones... Is it worth the price to upgrade? Any opinions welcomed !
