Originally posted by Jonson PL The Z-1P has a red veil AF-assist light. Works well to get the shots in low-light. But it does slow down the speed, since you have to wait for it to kick in. But I find accuracy good. (Though for wide aperture, I guess split-prism and manual focus would be even more precise).
Can't speak of MZ-S or MZ-3 low light AF speed, don't have them
Hrm, yeah. Nothing like my old Canon F-1N and a 1.2 for the manual focus option, (it's why I bought that lens, much more than the sheer speed, actually (The non-L version is fairly soft at 1.2, anyway) : snappy focusing. Sometimes the eyes are just unhappy, though. (must remember to put eye-moistening drops on list.
) That's where the interest in eventually having an AF film body to fall back on comes in. Short of an LX, it seems there's no finder to be had like the F-1's, anyway. This ME Super's obviously nice, that way, but the metering's a pain, as is changing lenses, I actually have some hopes for this Super A, once I get a chance to clean the little fellow up.

In briefer terms, sometimes the AF is just quicker than me doubting myself.
Anyone with an opinion of the SF-1n?
