Hello,
I'm a really big fan of Cosina (Voigtlander) camera equipment. A few years ago I happened across a cheap used copy of their Voigtlander 58mm 1.4 in K-Mount. Most of the SLR Voigltander gear is in Canon EF but I didn't mind for this lens as this design was never in EF (design not conducive to electronic apertures I believe).
So I purchased a ZX-5n I found cheaply and it was all going great... Until the 5n died this week.
So I need a new K-Mount film body for for shooting a manual focus lens and I'm a bit lost. I'm hoping you all can help.
Here are my ideal requirements in order of most important to least:
- Really good viewfinder
- Spit prism screen or can be fitted with one
- Spot metering
- Shutter dial
- No obscure batteries (especially no mercury)
- Aperture Priority
- Shutter Priority
- Preferably manual focus and manual advance
- Program Mode
I kind of settled on the Voigtlander VSL 43 but they are very hard to find.
Any thoughts?
Thanks in advance
