They'll have you buying every Pentax gadget in the known universe. How do you like the MX so far?
Hopefully not.
It seems quite good. I remember trying one back in the early 80's
or late 70's and thinking it weas like holding a bar of soap
compared to the Ricoh Singlex TLS I had at the time. Then I
graduated to a Nikon F Photomic FTN with a Vivitar Series One
35-85 F2 hanging off the front as my main lens, it made the Ricoh
35-85 F2??????
seem like a little bar of soap.
Years pass...
My KM DiMAGE A2 has started to seem fairly normal in size, esp. after I got the battery grip for it.
Compared to it the MX seems a decent sort of thing, probably a good size. I like the compact dimensions of the 50/1.7 lens. If I want anything extra so far it's a 20 or 24mm lens.
