Pentax MZ7

Oversaturated? Probably Picture quality not the best due to only mid range flatbed scan of 6x4 prints, plus slightly inebriated whilst playing with PS in a dark room. Luckily I should be the proud owner of a 35mm negative scanner in the next few days, looking forward to compiling high quality images from my 35mm negs and in due course I'll pull my finger out and get a website put together to post some of my favourites.......

No digital camera for you?

I'm happy with my MZ. The older non-AF lenses fit and even beep when in focus.

But, I'm looking for a digital Pentax 5M pix to use this lenses and step into the new era . . .

do you remeber the shutter speed for 5 & 6?

1/125 or 1/250 and move along with the object I guess. That's how I did it with the 2.8 135mm

[trackdemon]

Most of the moving shots were actually taken at 1/30 or 1/20 - basically as slow as I could get it to go given the generally bright conditions, therefore mostly shot f22 / f28 on ISO200. Thats maybe a bit too slow for real clarity but certainly gives the feeling of movement and speed that I'm looking for - I'll probably drop to 1/60 or 1/90 next time....

I wish!, but I'd only be happy with a 'proper' SLR so I'm waiting for the Nikon / Canon to reach sensible money....

Yes, I like my MZ too - nice and useable, good AF, excellent metering and as you say, older PK fit non AF lenses fit. I recently paid £15 for a perfectly good 70-210 Tokina non-AF off ebay, so even if I do consider changing brands when I go DSLR I can justify buying lenses for my current Pentax. I may still be tempted to look at a Pentax ist-D (6MPix) though, although the reviews suggest that the EOS300 (Digital rebel) or Nikon D1 are better.
