I'm looking for an AF film body to use, but here's the thing: I already have a ZX-30 (broken), and as much as I like(d) it I really can't stand using that little switch on the camera body to control the aperture. My fingers are much more comfortable manipulating an aperture ring. So with which AF bodies (preferably in the ZX/MZ line) can I control aperture with the lens? I've scoured the innernets and can't find that info anywhere.

Oh, and if you know which might have an actual pentaprism (rather than a penta-mirror) that would also be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
