Originally posted by craveone I did come across a K2 DMD.... Would this be another option to an LX or Super A?
I don't know.
I switched to Pentax only in 1981, and missed the K series completely.
During the 1970s, as a student, Pentax was just out of my reach.
In West Germany, East German cameras were sold at extremely low prices.
At that time, I got my Exakta VX1000, Exa500, 35/50/135mm lenses, 2x TC, and extension tubes all together for roughly the same money a Spotmatic (just the body!) would have cost me.
But there are (or were?) a couple of members always raving about the K2, specially the DMD.
Maybe you will get suggestions by these.
But certainly the K2 (and the KX!) are big and heavy compared with the M series models.
