Originally posted by filmamigo My dad gave me a P3n that he picked up for a few pennies. Nice camera! Love that it has AE-L. That elevates this camera to being a really usable body.
I never cottoned on to the push-buttons and LCDs of the Program Plus, or the ME Supers. Those cameras felt good in the hand but I found them tough to use in the "heat of battle." Hence, they left my stable, and I opted for the MX. The P3n is a perfect manual focus Program/AE option for use alongside the old MX.
I added the lowly P3n to my sig. But I'm still waiting for someone to make a "Proud Owner" tag!
I agree! one of the cool things about the P3/30/n/t (
) is how you can roll the shutter speed dial in almost the same way you would roll the control wheel on the front of a K10/20. The layout of the camera is such that you only need to pull it from your eye to wind the film, and if you use your right eye you might not even need to do that.
