I have a recently CLA'd "Pingless" MX that i'm on the fence about selling. If you'd like to consider buying it I'll listen to your offers
Thanks for the offer. The 35mm 2.8 Zuiko I just bought off you is going to be my only purchase for a while now. Actually I'm trying to sell off my two OM2n bodies, an extra 28 3.5 and 100 2.8 to fund an OM4. I need the dioptric adjustment because I hate shooting with glasses on.
I posted videos after I got the MX back on page 11 of this thread.

One of the KXs actually rings the ping out for a long moment. Its like "Ta Daaaaa! I took a picture!"
Haha I liked this post. I really wish I could live with it but when my eye is up to the viewfinder ,and it pings, it's actually really uncomfortable to my ears. My Minolta XD5 has a quieter ping with a lower pitch and length. My ME Super is pretty quiet and my OMs are just plain beautiful (sounding..and looking).
