Mine went dead about a month ago. I used it for about 11 years. I replaced it with the new (and very expensive) DA* 16-50 PLM AW. It focuses a lot faster than the old 16-50, and the AF seems to be working fine in video mode (I haven't used it much for video yet). I must say it is extremely sharp, and purple fringing seems to be reduced too. Very happy with it so far.
I've not seen much feedback on the new version. Glad to hear you like it.

I was helping teach photogrammetry earlier in the week. As a bit of fun I took in my Stereo Realist 45 camera and my viewer. I was really pleased that when I fitted the batteries the viewer still worked. I have a small box of slides that came with the viewer labelled 1957 including a cute one of some cats and some from the US military.

I'd like to get some slide mounts and the correct format (5P) are made in Germany but the only sources I have found online (so far!) are in the US and cost more to ship than to buy.

Yup. Set to Bulb mode, hold in green button, front dial for exposures up to 20 minutes. Learn something new every day!

Use a shutter cable and either hold the button down or some will lock. My Pentax one has a lock, the third party one I just bought for my XR-X you have to hold the button in manually.

Shame modern cameras don't have the equivalent of the T setting where one click opened the shutter and the second closed it.

K.
