Thanks!
I just did a few calculations, and after the USD to AUD conversion (shipping added as well) there are some decent deals for international buyers!

I've been milling over a Leica purchase for a few months. I too nearly purchased an M6, and have bidded on local M8's on eBay (still punching myself for missing out on a $1900 body). I feel as though a Leica would get more use than my K-7. Plus then I could happily buy something like a Bessa to compliment my kit for when I feel like giving film a spin.
Reasons I haven't let Pentax go entirely are my DA15 and FA43.
The thought of getting a Leica-M mount film camera + Sony NEX7 has also crossed my mind. Gah, this camera addiction seems to keep getting the better of me!

That's actually a really good point that hadn't even crossed my mind. For some reason when it comes to digital I always seem to care about the ISO performance (and one of the reasons I'm craving upgrading to a K-5). I guess the only real alternative is to purchase some blisteringly fast glass ... but my budget would be limited to Voigtlander/Zeiss lenses as I doubt I'll be able to pickup a Summilux at a budget conscious price.
Sorry, what I meant is that I would be unable to use any m-mount glass on my Pentax. Whereas if I went down the route of getting a Pentax film slr I could use my FA43/FA77.
Alternatively, if I purchased an M8, I'd probably have to consider jumping off Pentax all together ... or maybe keeping just the K-7 and FA43/FA77.

Hi,
I'm trying to curb my desire to purchase a rangefinder. I've considered a digital M8, but the poor ISO capability puts me off (and I definitely can't afford an M9). I've considered a film Voigtlander Bessa, but all lenses I purchase will be limited to use on that body.
The other option I'm considering is getting a Pentax 35mm body. However, having never owned, purchased or used one before, I am uncertain of the nomenclature. Big advantage is obviously that I can use any FA series lenses (FA31/FA43/FA77), as well as a host of cheap and fast primes.
Looking for suggestions on which Pentax 35mm camera would best suit my needs based on these requirements:
* Good, bright viewfinder that aids manual focusing
* Size is important - the smaller, the better
* Built like a brick shithouse
* Don't care about autofocusing, not a requirement
* Image quality (obviously dependent on 35mm film/lens used)
* Ease of use (metering modes and exposure calculation)
Any input appreciated.
Cheers

Keen.
How does a trade typically work, logistically speaking?

Would you ship to Australia? If so, estimated postage cost? If it's reasonable I'll take it :)

I have a 100WR Macro in pristine condition that I would be willing to trade.
Are you looking for any type of cash adjustment?

Often wondered this myself. I always turn the camera off between periods of shooting....this also begs the question of whether this bad for the battery (ie. is startup using more power than standby)

I've considered buying off eGlobal. There is a huge thread on whirlpool about them; they're legit and extremely fast.
Warranty is covered if you post it back to them too.
