Originally posted by PaddyB By nasty conditions I mean high humidity, (moderate) exposure to dust/dirt/sand and light rain. No heavy rain or underwater use. My K10D has done nicely in such conditions although I found mold on the mount recently when I removed the lens. Perhaps I'll try the electrical tape idea.
So which of the MZ series are well built? Some of them are pretty cheap on ebay...can anyone give me a breakdown on the MZ's or a link thereto?
Thanks.
I can not recommend the MZ-7 enough as I said I took pictures with it even in the rain, dust, field trips and so on. I love this camera its easy to use its fast and simple.
the k1000 is a Tank but its very simple, some times its nice to have AV and TV mode also the biggest problem with the K1000 in the field is loading film. I am experienced with the process and still takes me good 10 min every time. in field/ rain/ dust condition is not recommended
