 I can say that around here, can't I, they're film cameras after all... I mean, those poor FD lenses, unlike the Takumars, are orphans now... I hear the loose ones get rounded up twice a year, and if there's no takers... *shudder* oh you don't want to know. So it would be purely for humane reasons.... I'm a member of our local LHS (Lens Humane Societ)...
I have an AE-1 with some cool lenses...While my collection is small, I feel I have what I need for it. 28 F/2.0, 50 F/1.8 and 135 F/2.8 that I have not even used. I am looking for a 35 F/1.8 right now....
As far as comparing it to the Pentax, it is big..perhaps bigger than a K1000...All in all I prefer my ME-SUPER over it...Image quality, appears to be the same...
Nesster, go for it.
