Ditto! I definitely love my F2... Sometimes in the past, when I needed money, I thought to part with my - almost mint - F2 (mine is the AS, with the DP12 led finder), but just couldn't... It is really a beautiful piece of engineering. I've just taken this quick comparison shot:

The F2 and the MX mount both a 50/1.4 lens.
BRAVO!!!. You have the hot shoe.
I never missed not having a way to mount a flash on my F2s. Do you use yours?
I did use an SB-15 on my F3. It was cool, it flipped 180�, one way it was right over the lens, the other it was as far above (though slightly off centre) the lens as possible.
It was really well thought out.
Prism mounted flash just doesn't work as well, it seems. I noticed that poor little Pentax that Don showed us has an offset hotshoe. Did Pentax make a flash to take advantage of the offset?
