Discounting film ... In the past ten years I've spent close to $12,000 on cameras & lenses. (the outlay in the ten years prior to that, though, was less - $0). Mind you, for that I've ended up with: A PZ-1p/FA28-105/FTZ500, an MZ-S/BG, a *ist-D/BG, and a (black) MX/Motor drive. The glass includes A* 200/2.8 & 300/2.8, and FA* 80-200/2.8 & 250-600/5.6 I don't think I'll be buying a 645D either, though.
